President Pinckney's reputation had been damaged after he ordered the navy to sink French and British ships. However, he had enough voters, but his proposal to declare war on Britain and France was shot down in the Senate. President Pinckney also has said that he will not run in 1812, claiming he wants the ensuing war to be in the hands of his successors.

This was the beginning of the end of the Federalists. People in the Federalist Party were split over tensions which had just recently boiled over when the Navy sunk multiple French and British ships. President DeWitt Clinton was a truce to this split. He had no views about the incident, instead leaving it up to the generals. He refused to run for a 2nd term, saying "My party won't last long." After his term, he left the Federalists, and quit politics.

Tensions boil over again after President Clinton's term is over. The Federalists split up under President Monroe, the first Democratic-Republican leader, and the British invade Michigan, culminating in a battle in Detroit, which the British won. The French and Spanish invade the South, but the Americans hold back, and, several weeks before the 1820 election, President Monroe announces that he'll run in 1820.

The 1820 election was a very turbulent election, with a tie between a group of Federalists who hadn't picked a leader, since, recently, the party had fell. The House of Representatives picked Monroe, with Van Buren being blamed for the tie. President Monroe declined to run in 1824.

Why is Ted Cruz now a Democrat? Why are Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker now Republicans? What's even going on? It looks interesting, but can we have some context please?

This election, was so chaotic because they had no people to oppose, since the Federalists became defunct under Monroe. The House of Representatives chose Crawford, after days of deliberation. President Crawford declined to run in 1828, because he didn't want to be in another chaotic election.

Following the downfall of the Democratic Party after the disastrous 2056 elections, the Republican Party came to effectively dominate the politics of the United States. However, the end of the Democrats created political chaos, leading to the rise of numerous leftist and anti-Republican movements.

One of such movements was the Labour Party. Envisioned as a coalition by Intermountain West politicians (both Democrats and Republicans), the Libertarians, moderate leftists, workers' rights alliances and other small groups which weren't okay with the New Establishment, Labour Party eventually replaced the Democratic Party, even as numerous so-called Democratic remnants (referred to as "Liberal Parties") tried to rise. Thus, the term Ninth Party System was coined. The System began in 2056 and ended in 2092 following the War Distress and realignment of voting blocs. The Labour Party was dominant in the Intermountain West (with the exception of Arizona and New Mexico) and very powerful in the Midwest, while the Republican Party dominated the East Coast. "Liberal Parties", on the other hand, held practically unchallenged control of Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and would come to control most of the "Island States" by 2084.

Republicans - 343 EV, 39%
New Democrats - 122 EV, 27%
America First - 54 EV, 14%
Democrats - 13 EV, 19%

Mormon Independence - 6 EV, 1%


The Election of 2032 was a disaster. As both parties started moving in a more Centrist direction after the election of Lisa Murkowski, the America First and New Democratic Parties were founded. Both were anti-establishment. The New Democrats were mainly Democratic Socialists while America First was mainly made up of racists. The Democratic Party did a lot worse than expected, winning less electoral votes than the New Democrats. The Republicans, however, began attracting Moderates and Centrists with their new anti-racism message. This election would see the Democratic Party collapse soon after. Utah, afraid of all 4 parties, voted for the 3rd time for the Mormon Independence Party.
 
It's happened before, but I don't see how two very different parties suddenly just switch sides. With the Republicans and Democrats it took at least 50 years after the Civil War.
Actually, that's kind of a myth. Their core purposes were still the same. The Republicans were the party of Big Business, the Democrats the populists criticising business's excesses. The policies they advocated were just changed because of the changing times. Jackson advocated small government because it was the populist message at the time (the National Bank was disliked by small farmers). You can see that same criticism of big finance today in today's Democrats. If there's any true inversion, it's with the New Democrats and Democrats becoming the party of the middle-class.

The Democratic-Republicans, had split into 2 parties, the Democrats, and the National Republicans. This happened due to internal bickering, since they didn't prepare for the Federalists to crumble, which caused the results of the 1824 election. President Adams decides to not run, in 1832.
