The Republicans have to get rid of Trump, the Trump enablers, the Trump base, the racist tendency and the elitist tendency.  That, and they have to wait for the turnings to go selfish again.  It will take that long to rebuild after the 'get rid of' phase anyway.

Of course, there is always the chance that the Trump base will come out on top of the Republicans struggle for control of the party.  If that is the case, and the base still seems dedicated enough to the racist cause that it might happen, the party goes down to a non contender status.  Trump could prove a looser, but the core of the strongest conservative faction.

We already came out on top of the struggle for control over the party. The Republican party knows that it can't win without us and the Trump supporters and the Evangelicals these days. You really have to start paying attention to what you write about us and our so called tendencies compared to the tendencies that we can see and directly associate with you and the Democratic side.

There's more than a grain of truth in this.  Bill Clinton singlehandedly destroyed the bond between the working class and the Democratic Party.  The people who suffered then haven't forgotten.  On the other hand, it's getting more and more obvious that the Trump Train was and remains a massive confidence game, and that will have implications in the future.  Bernie Sanders already has the code to reverse this faux pas, and someone both younger and equally charismatic will emerge -- of that I'm certain. When and who are the only unknowns.

Well, I figure if we come out of this with a rock solid Republican Senate and a rock solid Republican House then it's just a matter of time before the party of the Hamlets and Macbeth's implode. I hope you're prepared for violence and a very rough 4T as the American Right begins to pull the rug out from under the feet of the Washington elite and opts to remain idle as Rome burns. I don't think its going to matter how young and charismatic a Marxist is at this point or down the road either.
