    The party probably can’t continue after Trump. It’ll splinter into warring factions trying to out purity each other and go nowhere.

    Watch for that, because it’s an opportunity for a real leftist party to emerge.

      I’ve been saying for years now that every politician with an R after their name needs to be removed from government. Then, the existing Democrat party can logically splinter into its own progressive/moderate/conservative divisions (I might not agree with Democratic conservatives, but at least they’re not completely insane and can be reasoned with).

      What a hopeful thought, that the Republicans might finally do this to themselves. I hope you’re right.
