Republican Party

The Republican Party, also known as the GOP, is a big-tent conservative party in the United States. A major party in the game, the Republican Party has been known to the community as consistently active since the game's return in 2021.

Founded by Chavez, the Republican Party has gone through several external and internal turmoils and crises, many which have been redeemed by great feats of accomplishments, varying from successive Presidencies to "Trifectas".

The Party has won several Presidencies, Trifectas, and at one point had the advantage the Democratic Party of the "ancient days" had. This is the result of the Trinity of Blake Stone, Civil Fox, and James Ernest. The trinity falls off in activity during 2023, with Stones the only active Trinity members, who will continue to be a decisive figure in Republican decision-making, with new leadership including Gumball Bobuckson, Lord El-Melloi, Reines Edwards, Yasin Thatcher, forming the Gang of Five.

Ernest returned in fall 2023, and Civil returned shortly after, restoring the Trinity's impact.

Current leadership are Chairman Geneva, Vice Chair Alexia Ashford and Treasurer Lord El-Melloi.

He became chair at a time when the Republicans had just lost their senate and governor majority. On August 12, the GOP temporarily took back the house for the first time since July 19, while also breaking their 24 day presidency streak. They also immediately lost their house majority after the August 16 elections to the Democrats. On August 16, Donald Trump led a campaign to increase party strength nationwide, increasing GOP national party strength to 50% from 35% in one day. Raymond B. Long, GOP presidential candidate, created a presidential ticket meant to unite Democrats and Republicans. Donald Trump relatively supported it. It failed on August 21. After the August 24 election, Republican ended up tying the NGA majority, leading to them taking back the NGA chairmanship.
CivilTheFox	Sept 2 – Sept 30	Bazyli Mikolja Wojcik Donald J. Trump (Arbiter)	Created a coalition with Forward Party that would dominate the iteration Helped get Bazyli the speaker of the house position, a mini-battle between the GOP and Demsocs Bankrupted the party in the 41st presidential election which ended in a 0.009% loss in Pennsylvania. In response to this loss, he refused to fund the 42nd presidential election, prompting Donald J. Trump, the vice chair and presidential nominee, to leave for the Constitution Party. Bazyli Mikolja Wojcik would replace him Over time, the GOP would come to dominate the house and the GOP + FWD combination would outmatch the Libertarians there. The 43rd presidential election would end in a decisive GOP victory On September 28, 2022, an individual known as Bernard would attempt a 2nd Roblox coup. This would succeed, but it would last 20 hours and 12 minutes before Chavez reinstated Civil and Bazyli to their positions
Bernard Caldwell	Sept 30 7:00 PM EST — Oct 1 2:12 PM EST	Bazyli Mikolja Wojcik	Recovered 32.74 million after convincing Chavez that it wasn’t used for PSO purposes. Appointed James Ernest, War Director Created a “GOP Loyalist Program” in order to insure loyalty. To declare loyalty, you had to go into designated “declare loyalty” channel. This channel was known for its admin abuse from the chair and treasurer. They’d be muted at 1 AM EST on October 1 for continuously harassing party members. The mod team would eventually find out about their recruitment scheme where they’d recruit players with the sole purpose of voting for them. Bernard and Kai would be replaced by the former chair & treasurer before them.
CivilTheFox	Oct 1 – Nov 1	Bazyli Mikolja Wojcik	The GOP would reside over a period of time where inactivity plagued the Demsocs and other parties. The GOP would create great majorities in the house and senate On November 1st, Tim “Tiny” Ryan (Vladimir Putin at the time) would coup the GOP with the help of the Roblox coupers and Ernest
Vladimir Putin	Nov 1 – Nov 5	Antony J. Blinken	Was the second Roblox coup of the Version V iteration Abolished national party dues Abolished the war department via Ernest Looted the entire treasury
Bazyli Mikolja Wojcik	Nov 5 — January 10	Ben H. Phillips	Resided over the end of the Version V iteration Reimplemented the war department with Henry Lodge in charge Recreated the RNC, before abandoning Mostly known for the Kai Santiago Feud Kept a GOP trifecta for majority of reign, known for pioneering the "AA War Machine" Saw the Penn Defections take place, which lead to the eventual "trifecta deflation", loss of White House, Senate, House, NGA, stepped down shortly before
Blake Stone	January 10 - January 19, 2023	Ben H Phillips	Created Intra-Party Relations Department, AA Squadron, and Money Centralization Department Fostered organization in the new Republican Server

Beck	January 19, 2023 - February 27, 2023	Civil Fox Obama Care	Brought back Movie and VC Nights Gained Party's "Quadfecta" (Term coined by Chairman Beck) and White House command due to Penn inactivity and Stone's Strategic Management, as well as Obama Care and James Ernest defecting from Democrats with their men Saw the purging of democrats from Cabinet since Obama was still President Reformatted money requests, created a politician register Unfortunately, things would turn for the worse going into Version VII. Party divisions and factionalism would start to become apparent, which’d be a stain on the party for the rest of the iteration Thomas Jefferson drama would occur where Jefferson sent money to the democratic candidate for the February 11 pres election A revolution on party dues occurred and taxes being as high as possible became the norm He’d end up having some minor beef with evelyn before retiring to focus on stuff other than BFTH. His chairmanship in Iteration VII would end up having him seem like an absentee chair.
Obama Care	February 26, 2023 - March 22, 2023	Blake Stone Tony Soprano	His presence in the party was a large source of controversy . He’d sort of become the face of the GOP in iteration VII. Brought back the RNC On March 15, 2023, he would run as president for the GOP and grant the GOP their first presidential victory of the iteration. On that same day, they’ve gain a senate majority of 51-49. It would end up being short lived. Drama would occur between him and Lord el-Melloi Would proceed to ban large wave of dissident players and would receive a warning from the owner Divisions would increase, with someone in the same party writing an impeachment bill against him.
Lord El-Melloi	March 22, 2023 - April 7, 2023	Iosef Lancea (Bazyli)	The GOP senate majority would be lost on March 23, only to be nearly regained on April 4. Any chance at a majority would then be crushed in the following cycles, albeit the margins were close Blacklisting would increase along with party members primarying each other Suspended the RNC Presided over the re-election of Obama Care (who would later defect), the GOP’s 2nd presidential victory, however he stated in a BFTH TV interview that the GOP would be better off without Obama as president Regain confidence and unity in the party after the Obama incident Presided over the 498-42 presidential loss Had a couple of game nights and created the unity department, largely stabilize the party from the Obama era Often referred as the "unity' chair, where the party heal its wound during his tenure
James Ernest	April 7, 2023 - April 18, 2023	George Washington (Simmons) Ronald W. Reagan	Brought back the RNC Raised GOP PSO to 99.8% on April 11 Won control of the house on April 12 Suffered from Democrat spies a little more than Melloi Ended up suffering tremendous losses in the NGA, the largest GOP state being Missouri Would accidentally resign on April 15, which gave Washington chair for a short period of time Created the national committee and national ministry Claimed he would “overkill” and put all focus on house, which’d bring massive NGA and senate losses. He’d end up completely switching to focusing on senate Came up with Operation BOFIC, an attempted Roblox coup on the Democratic Party, which never happened Tensions would heat up with Ernest taking 134 million when Reagan threatened to turn off auto-accept. Reagan would retaliate by puttingan 80 million transfer to the Tea Party Caucus in queue. He then resigned lol
Ronald W. Reagan	April 18, 2023 - April 23, 2023	Kouhei Atashi	Became chair as a result of Ernest’s resignation Abolished the national committee and abolished many national ministry positions Announced he’d leave BFTH on April 22 after his term ends, making Blake Stone acting chair
Mitth	April 23, 2023 - May 8, 2023 Resigned	McAppled George Washington (Simmons) Richard Dempsey	Vice chair McAppled banned half the GOP discord, leading to his removal Goal was to win president, which failed at the last presidential election of Version VII Became chair going into Version VIII Resigned on May 8th
Richard Dempsey	May 8, 2023 - May 13, 2023	Blake Stone	Strategy was to win president, which failed against Gary Johnson. Also sacrificed house and senate seats Resided over great confusion and disunion within the GOP
CivilTheFox	May 13, 2023 - May 21, 2023	Richard Dempsey	At this point it’s the same, losses in congress and president, much of it was forgotten Lost re-election to Simmons. It is generally an uncommon occurrence for a chair to lose re-election
George Washington (Simmons)	May 21, 2023 - May 28, 2023	James Ernest	GOP wins would occur in the senate and NGA. A victory would even occur on May 27 GOP wins Presidency
Coach Maximus Titius	May 29, 2023 - June 14, 2023	James Ernest Blake Stone Feel Dog	A complete abandonment of the house would occur with an absolute democrat majority there, and re-election for president would be lost on June 6 Gains in the senate and NGA would be mostly eroded as well Created the Benjamin Franklin bot, which calculated how much was needed to win elections (defunct) Changed the GOP logo to a pride flag, which led to a server riot for Simmons on June 7, 2023 Ernest would then nuke the GOP discord on June 10, leading to a dev occupation led by Ironcosmo
Simmons	June 14, 2023 - June 22, 2023	Feel Dog	Became chair under some of the worst times for the GOP, losses in all chambers of congress, president, and NGA. Tried to create a feudalist system where someone would “own” a state and have peasants work for them. They’d reap benefits if they won elections. (It failed). Attempted the “GOPenis” plan where the GOP would win governor seats that would make it look like a red penis on the NGA map. It’d fail after a loss in a hotly contested Mississippi governor race. Resided over Blake Stone’s ban
Blake Stone	June 22, 2023 - October 13, 2023	Feel Dog Joseph Randolph Sparks Yasin Thatcher Herbert Hoover James Ernest Reines	Blake’s chairmanship would see major improvements from the previous 2 iterations Led the GOP into Version IX Obama Care, Alexia Ashford, and Joseph Randolph would all return to the GOP this iteration after being the Democrats for the past few iterations The GOP would end up winning majorities in the house, senate, and NGA to start off the iteration The GOP would have their first two-term president since March 31 on July 24, when Blake Stone finished his 2nd term as president Victories would continue, with the GOP weathering a 2-term debuff to win president with Obama Care, and then again for re-election This would lead to an immense SCOTUS majority of 8-1 The GOP would back Alycia Carey for president as there was a 4 term debuff along with a costly primary The GOP would once again have a close primary, although Alexia Ashford would pull away and win another president With the GOP's continuous victories, a reset seemed very likely, and sure enough, it occurred on August 24 He would be elected chair once again, making his tenure stretch across 3 iterations Alexia Ashford, Obama Care, and Joseph Randolph would leave the GOP going into version X (Randolph would return later, though), leading to Gumball Bobuckson becoming war director The GOP would start off slow, but a FWD-GOP alliance would be negotiated, which would lead to a deadlock for the first presidential election, leading to Simon Ericksson's presidency and Aegon Seleucus' vice presidency the alliance won the next presidential election, with the GOP winning a house majority & FWD winning the senate, leading to Ernest being president and Scott Morrison being vice-president Ernest would resign as president suspecting a socialist assassination, giving Scott Morrison president. The assassination never occurred After a hard-fought presidential election, Ernest would become president again due to the GOP house majority with Scomo VP However, tensions would rise and Ernest would appoint Ben Phillips as secretary of the interior. He'd proceed to resign and assassinate Scott Morrison, giving Ben Phillips president as congressional leadership gets refreshed after every presidential election George HW Bush would become the GOP candidate for president, although they'd lose the election outright to the socialists The GOP would decline in the senate and house, although their lead in the NGA would be maintained, with many states turning extreme right, such as Ohio There'd be no play for the re-election, although the GOP would win the 77th presidential election outright with Lord El-Melloi, this being Blake Stone's last presidential election he resided over under this term as chairman This'd be the longest consecutive chair tenure of any person in BFTH GOP history at 114 days.
Gumball Bobuckson	October 13, 2023 - November 30, 2023	Reines Scott Morrison	Came into chairmanship after a presidential victory a day prior Resided over & helped advise Lord El-Melloi’s re-election Had a near break in the FWD-GOP-Dem deal after letting El Donaldo Trumpo become the GOP nominee for president & losing the presidential election Dems would pull out, but FWD would stay in the deal Helped stop Simon Eriksson’s high cabinet nominations Resided over and advised Nikolas Nyberg’s first presidential victory over Gary Johnson Would win the GOP a house majority, giving the GOP-FWD alliance a quadfecta, & help whip a speaker victory GOP would recover to 3 SCOTUS seats after the previous 3 were removed due to dual-holding a month prior Nikolas Nyberg would be elected to president over Gary Johnson in one of the most expensive presidential elections in BFTH history. He’d go on to win re-election in a landslide Balbino incidents would occur where GOP members & house leader Diane Clark would feud with Luca Balbino Would stay chair going into Version 10.5 where a trifecta of senate-house-NGA would be achieved on the first cycle, which would turn into a short-lived quadfecta (house would be lost due to scotus appointments) after Alycia Carey won the first president in 500+ EV landslide Factionalism not seen in months returns to its peak with Ernest, Chavez, MSC, and other various factions forming, aligning, and fighting with one another. The developers would re-add handicap funds, add handicap PC, and make the trifecta debuff much more powerful due to the advantage in member count the GOP had Blake Stone would time out & derole VC Scomo after his popularity declined from the Ernest-Scomo ERP screenshots leak. This would snowball to Stone leaving BFTH (temporarily) and the end of the Gumball chairmanship.
James Ernest	November 30, 2023 - January 17, 2024	Richard Dempsey Blake Stone	Abolished the 5 month Constitution/RNC System, instating Council of Chairs, the Dempsey RNC Plan, and BOFIC Agency A week into his term, he’d be declared innocent by a short investigation by the owners after being accused of breaking the rules. Blake Stone would be among the people defending Ernest, which’d lead him to reconciliation and bring him into party leadership Lackluster election results that had began recently would turn around after Blake Stone became vice-chair, with strong NGA showings of 75% majorities being seen Would survive a close re-election call for chair, which’d be reoccurring for him First RNC elections would occur in months, with 14 available slots, 2 hours to vote, one man, one vote, with Penn and Gumball receiving the most amount of votes The RNC lasted 2 days before being abolished, along with the new constitution Would begin taking action to deal with Eddie Van Halen who’d spent dozens of millions on the presidential primary and voted against nominations Would establish “Hill Capital” meant to raise revenue and bring a fully operational casino to the BFTH GOP State party chairs would be mandated to set their primary rules to winner-take-all Would oversee the victory of Geneva over Pete Buttigieg in the presidential election Lil would create a bot meant to calculate amount of polling needed to win an election, which would be used a couple of weeks later to grief the GOP discord Senate supermajority would wither as the Democrats would begin occupying formerly vacant senate seats, leading to the 50 state plan, which was meant to contest every active senate and governor election on 1/4/24, which’d lead to the GOP sweeping the senate Senate and NGA majority would wither away slowly, with the GOP losing the senate by the end of hid chairmanship Would overhaul the GOP bureaucracy in order to fix issues like chronic bankruptcy and failure to pass bills, including 12 new agencies Troubles with members primarying and AAing other members would arise He’d be forced to leave at the end of hist erm after being threatened with a dox
Blake Stone	January 17, 2024 - January 25, 2024	Lord El-Melloi	Wouldn’t change too much apart from departments being removed, renamed, or changed Brought back regional chairs Would bring back blacklisting, with the blacklisted Republican being Eddie Van Halen for primarying incumbents and AAing other Republicans The senate would be retaken by the end of his term and the white house would be retaken as well An official apology by Eddie Van Halen would be secured
James St. Patrick (Geneva)	January 25, 2024 - Present	Lana Del Ray	Brought back the 5-month RNC seen under Stone and Gumball with caucus chairs appointing RNC members Would create a “Small Council” which included stuff like a Master of War (war director) Blacklisting would be officially prohibited by the devs House majority would be completely forfeited and the NGA majority would be lackluster in comparison to earlier in the iteration, however the senate majority would nearly reach Ernest/Gumball level ratios with a supermajority just out of reach For the first time in the iteration, the democrats led the GOP in party membership, leading to the NGA flipping, but the GOP responded with retaking the house from a democrat 75% majority

Ricardo Rosselló — Chavez Republican Party Chairman during the Alpha

Founding (May 12, 2021)

When the game's development of official release began in May 2021, two major groups sought to take the Republican Party of BFTH; Steve McQueen, Leader of the NUP (National Unity Coalition), an age-old political dynasty from BFTH's spiritual predecessor, "Power." Chavez (RFK), leader of the Populists, a group Chavez forged via the Federalist, Reform, and Bull Moose Populist parties from the preceding 2 years.

Chavez forged an alliance with Gary Johnson's Libertarian group.

Founding Fathers

James Ernest - First RNC Member, proponent of original Constitution-based structure, original Senate Leader, 1st Revolutionary Caucus Leader
John Philips - First Vice Chairman, author of the Constitution
Aegon Seleucus - Original RNC Member, pioneered checks-balances system
Chad Johnson - Original RNC Member, leader of Marketing division
Wilhelm Von Bayern - Original RNC Member, was zealous for rule moderation
Les Aspin (Poggers) - Original RNC Member, opposed leadership's excessive micromanagement
Blake Stone - First Strategy Adviser, proponent of RNC transparency and 2nd Revolutionary Caucus Leader
Copyable Cow - Original Leadership, Member of Administrative team, pioneered gaming nights
ColdNorse - Original Leadership, Member of Administrative team
Glenn Tuft - Architect of the Party's Intelligence Framework
Cooly Coolidge - Original RNC Member, proponent of Member Rights
Cooooolidge - Helped build structure of advisers to Chairman
Eugene Talmadge - Ideologically drove party far right from get go, an Original RNC Member
Joseph Vargas - Chavez's top Senior Adviser
Bob Hawke - VC/Chair who pioneered "community-building" via Movie/Game/VC sessions
And Chavez himself, finalized Constitution, prepared for reset, Caucus Organization System (COS)

In June 2021, early RNC was characterized by Vice Chair John Philips striving further executive rule, which was curbed. Members soon criticized many aspects of party rule, such as McAppled and Poggers, but they were banned or demoted very quickly. A rift at some point grew where Chavez aspired for absolute control, which angered many members who liked democracy. After election rigging scandal and John Philips ban from the party, James Ernest initiated a "Revolutionary Caucus" composing of the RNC Members (Wilhelm, Aspin, Stone, Johnson, Aegon, etc. The Philips ban lead to the Day of Reckoning, where Ernest's ban moments later for requesting a trial for the ousted Vice Chair lead to The NUP-Revolutionary Caucus Agreement, where Himmler, Moogs, Frank Martin, and Gary Johnson forged an alliance. Disappointing election results for Senate, House, Governors, and the Presidency in the Alpha Release widened rifts, leading to Ernest nominating Blake Stone to be Party Chair. This lead to the Info Wars, where Ernest and Chavez actively produced propaganda films and essays criticizing each other. When Ernest was banned for alleged transphobia, Blake Stone's leadership of the caucus collapsed when NUP launched an invasion, collapsing negotiations, on the Chavez GOP.

In August, when the game finally released, disappointing election results where the Democratic Party completely dominated with a trifecta shook confidence in Chavez GOP. Being pressed by the NUP Coalition, and seeing members contemplate jumping ship to the America First Party, he lead an infamous August Boycott, where the founding fathers who remained quit.

National Unity GOP (August 15, 2021 - October 15, 2021) The Dark Ages

NUP Era began with Cassius MacInnis's Chairmanship, who promptly was faced with dissent from Gavin Newsom (Soocle). Party elections were abolished, and the selective RNC transformed the party into largely aristocratic rule. Cassius was largely advised by Ernest, who was unbanned, on party matters. At some point in August, Soocle had a falling out with Cassius and intentionally/unintentionally launched Roblox Raiders to attack Cassius, which was stopped by him and Ernest's strategy of ending any plans of discord elections. Ernest secured Civil Fox's appointment as National Campaign Director, which transformed the party's hopes in House elections.

Obama Care, Moogs, Huey Long, Lockford, Cassius, and Frank Martin were regarded the breakout stars of the era. Election management was considered below average, and the inactivity of the party itself lead to this era being called "dark age."

Eventually, the GOP had gained the House of Representatives. Cassius was then replaced by Frank Martin, in a shadow coup for being inactive. This ushered in the factionalism brewing, with James Ernest, Blake Stone, CivilTheFox, comprising the "Trinity." The "Trinity" sought revenge for NUP's betrayal of them, and wanted to govern the party, leading to the great October Civil War. Despite failure in the first round of elections, Civil Fox had gained the Vice Chairmanship by that time and it was held ransom by NUP essentially. Sussy Noodle's assistance, as well as some sacrifices by members sick of inactive structure like Cassius, with the blessed timing of Power (the pol sim) returning, leading to the election of Fox, Ernest, and Stone, as Chair, Vice Chair, and Treasurer respectively. This ended NUP with the good lot of them retiring.

Rise of the Libs

In July-August 2022, the Libertarian Party experienced a rapid rise to power, gaining the Majority in Senate and winning the Presidency, as well as gaining more seats in the house and more members in general, becoming the party with the most members within it. This has led to the fall of the GOP as the dominant party. Holding Second Place in both the Senate and House.

On September 27, James Ernest hinted at an AFP and Roblox coup of the GOP. On September 28, Bernard Caldwell would join the GOP along with around 20-30+ new players. The GOP would then see a new chair and treasurer, with only Bazyli keeping his leadership position. Under their short time in power, they’d harass members and attempt to obtain loyalty. They would last 19 hours and 12 minutes in power, however, until Chavez removed them from power and banned some of them. On October 26, Vladimir Putin would declare his run for chair. He got help from some Robloxians, leading to a mini-Roblox coup.

Despite this, one could argue the second Roblox coup strengthened the GOP player count and fundraising ability, which helped them dominate the iteration.

The Fallout of Iteration VII

Entering Iteration VII, things were looking competitive again, however it was expected that the GOP would continue their dominance. But as time went on, things kept getting worse.

Entering Version VII, the GOP would lose the first presidential election. Many claimed the devs increasing handicap funds to the Democrats (as they spent it all on governorships) is the reason for their victory. Austin F. Beck wouldn’t have the same activity as he did the previous iteration, and factionalism would become apparent. Austin F. Beck would eventually leave, giving Obama Care chair. His chairmanship would be marked by division. Caucuses and the national party didn’t see eye to eye. They did, however, win their first presidency. Obama would eventually also leave, which then gave Lord el-Melloi chair. He planned to unite the party, creating the Unity Department. Success wouldn’t occur during his chairmanship, though. Melloi also left, which then gave James Ernest chair. Ernest’s chairmanship was going to “overkill” the Dems. Suspecting the reset was right around the corner, Ernest went all in on the house. This would notoriously make Missouri the largest GOP state in the NGA and grant massive losses in the senate for a minor majority in the house. Eventually, things would break down. Ernest’s Roblox coup in the Democrats fell flat and he resigned.

Throughout the iteration, the glory of iteration VII would never be found. Division and factionalism would reach its highest, and no chair seemed to know how to fix it.
