Thanks for introducing me to the term for this. I had to look up “ouroboros”. Wikipedia includes a lovely illustration from a medieval illuminated manuscript:

Yes—it is a great description of what the party of sedition is doing to itself. Loved the mention of “rat snake” in the ourobouros definition.. so appropriate. Thanks for the spelling it has been a few years since I have had to use this word!
