I hate to break it to you but the main Trump support/anti BLM coalition is mainly older white people that "want their country back." The vast majority of Americas millenials support the left. They are going to vote Biden. There is not going to be a right wing push back. Trump himself is very much a "last hurrah" in that factor. 

Its not what right wingers like to hear but it is the truth. I guess I've started to look at the bigger picture more objectively and I sort of find myself agreeing more with Eric and the other boomers.

During my younger days, the phrase was "That does not compute."  Not that I don't agree with you on the above, but the tribal mind set cannot wrap itself around what you suggest.  The time will come, compatible with Yorktown, Appomattox or the Missouri in Tokyo Bay, when the old culture has to let go and you have to adapt to reality.  Even then a few cling to the old, and it is possible that Classic could very well be one of the few.

In the 2022 midterms we will see if and how the Republicans can reconstitute themselves as a real force after the Trump era.  I an dubious.  The racist, establishment, worker and elite factions of the party seem too opposed.  Somebody has to win, but they went way past the point of diminishing returns on small government, the selfish time of the unraveling has passed, the elites are viewed with suspicion, and there seem to be more votes for the workers than for prejudice.  They can hold something together, or multiple somethings, but I don't see them overpowering the Democrats for several generations.

But Classic will be absurdly be late to the party.
