Political Downfall

Political downfall refers to the loss of power or influence by an individual, party, or government, often resulting from various factors such as scandals, corruption, poor governance, public dissatisfaction, or electoral defeat. It can manifest in several ways, including resignation, impeachment, overthrow through revolution or coup, or significant loss during an election. Political downfalls typically lead to a significant shift in leadership and policy direction, often reflecting the electorate’s desire for change or a response to crises. The term also encompasses the broader implications for political stability and governance in a society.
