I think they'll re-org. From what I heard, only the cucks were given walking papers.

Cucks = cuckservatives = anti-Trump = Washington Generals v Harlem Globetrotters.

Goes back to cuckold:

Quote
... “cuck” has become shorthand for any perceived weakness, or rather, perceived reluctance to exploit strength.

Although “cuckold” has been used since the thirteenth century (the word itself derived from cuckoo birds, which lay eggs in another’s nest), “cuck” was added to Urban Dictionary in 2007. Any more exact tracing of its origins is lost in the dense knot of the internet and the speed with which its population seized upon an insult to emasculate others.

The word gained political potency during the 2016 election in the portmanteau “cuckservative” (cuck + conservative) used to imply that the mainstream conservatives of the Jeb Bush variety are weak and effeminate. Donald Trump, on the other hand, is not a cuckservative. He says what he wants and doesn’t care if it’s offensive. In reference to Trump’s comments about Megyn Kelly having “blood coming out of her wherever,” radio host Rush Limbaugh snarked, “If Trump were your average, ordinary, cuckolded Republican, he would have apologized by now.”

If that indeed happens...then they better re-brand as Deep Red and have a standing policy of stopping cuck's on-sight!

Thank you, Pan. Now I feel old since I'm not up on the vernacular.

You'll get by with a little help from your friends.  Not old; seasoned.

The damn jargon isn't the thing that matters, character is.
