Getting tired of his role

In the middle of a circus ring, a patch-worn elephant costume (Republican Party Leadership) comes undone. A man in the rear half of the costume (Western Republicans) suggests, "Say, wait a minute! Let's trade places for awhile!" while holding onto the coat tails of the man in the front half of the costume (Eastern Republicans).
