It's not a hope, the decline is inevitable. The question is who those people will vote for.

Most of the RET already left to vote for EFF and uBaba's stokvel. Leaving the moderates behind, who have no interest in these populist policies. What would be interesting to know is what the split is between RET/moderates in the ANC's remaining voter base...

All John has to do is to get another supremely competent person from his party and offer them as replacement.

No need for drama. He can easily find supremely competent person from DA. I can give at least 75 names on this mybb, if he asks me.

Agreed you DA can cry hypocrisy and point at all the otehr ministers but just don't break the rules an put yourself in that position in teh 1st place. Just get a suitable replacement and play but the rules even when other don't. ANC will keep scoring own goals don't join them.
 
Ramaphosa's highly irrational and frankly crazy decision to fire Whitfield will so easily backfire. What stops the DA from initiating the following process:

1. Introduce a Motion of No Confidence. The ANC's enemies will be frothing at the mouth to stab Cereal in the back.
2. If the MONC passes, a new process to elect an executive unfolds. GNU 2.0 loads. All bets are off here.
3. Even if the MONC fails, the ANC will have no choice but to boot the DA. This will then be seen as them collapsing the GNU.

I think we all know that this will be very bad for SA. But the narrative is 100% that the ANC caused this. The media is very on-board with this. Just another act of self-sabotage that the ANC performs on a day-to-day basis

What makes you think the DA would allow some common left winger on the internet to tell them what to do?

Lol, I am not the one telling them what to do, the President has said they must supply him with the name of a replacement, I am still very happy if they choose not to.

The "checkmate" that the ANC thought they delivered by firing a DA Deputy Minister with no real powers will backfire horribly. It is not possible for the DA to go along with such a direct and threatening move. This was a declaration of war and they have no choice but to strike back as hard and fast as possible. Cereal serves at the pleasure of the DA and he has just torpedoed his Presidency. Mark this post as the turning point in his career.
 
It seems to me like the ANC bot wagon has been very active latelly. Their stipend must have been paid. Wonder what else is in the woodwork waiting to come out.

The DA would be critical of MONCs right now they have been losing a lot of those recently, I don't think they even recall when last they successfully passed a MONC.
