The DA's "me first" strategy is only aimed at upstaging other opposition parties, at the cost of collective action and collaboration. Almost all of the motions of no confidence against Jacob Zuma were initiated by the DA and all but one fizzled into nothing. The latest one was rescued by the UDM's Constitutional Court challenge. While the DA's lethargic approach on the Nkandla matter was rescued by the EFF's Constitutional Challenge. The DA's latest stunt is premised on some contrived and still dubious logic - testing the ANC's electoral mandate, arguing that it failed to hold Jacob Zuma to account and has thus lost the confidence of the electorate. The DA may not like the outcome of the no confidence vote, but there was nothing unconstitutional or fraudulent about it. The motion to dissolve Parliament is gimmicky at best. Even ANC members that supported the no confidence motion will justifiable argue that a vote against Jacob Zuma should not be confused for a vote against the ANC.
