A mursher of crowys

[frogmarch]

I read that giving clever, poetic names to groups of animals was a popular pastime hundreds of years ago (an ostentation of peacocks, a parliament of owls, a skulk of foxes, a knot of frogs, an exaltation of larks) and that “a murder of crows” was around in 1475 as “a mursher of crowys” and a bit later as “a morther of crowys/crowes.” I guess no one has ever liked crows very much.

What would be a fitting poetic name for a group of republicans? I can’t come up with any right now. Please help with this. It is important!

Thank you.

1. A group of vultures feeding at a carcass is called a 'wake'

I don't think that helps much, but I thought it deserved mention.

9. Creepy, but apt.

I'll add it to my list. I like it!

Thanks!

3. a crock of carrion

Examples of carrion-eaters (or scavengers) include vultures, hawks, eagles,[1] hyenas,[2] Virginia Opossum,[3] Tasmanian Devils,[4] coyotes,[5] Komodo dragons,[6] and burying beetles.[7] Many invertebrates such as the burying beetles, as well as maggots of calliphorid flies and Flesh-flies also eat carrion, playing an important role in recycling nitrogen and carbon in animal remains

16. Teabaggerratti sounds menacing at first,

but seeing them wearing tea bags, and well, Teabaggerratti kinda loses its menace.

12. A Scrooge of Republicans?

A Rand of Republicans would be alliterative but fails to capture something.

[frogmarch]

15. Oh, that's good!

Everyone knows Scrooge, and the label fits them perfectly.
