Word of the Day > Word of the Day - Fissiparous

Merriam-Webster definition: tending to break up into parts : DIVISIVE

Via Michael Barone:

But I think we have to admit that it's hard for an opposition party to come up with an agenda and that it's particularly difficult for the Democratic Party, which throughout its history has tended to be more heterogeneous and fissiparous than the Republican Party
