    What worries me is the Republican party is too far gone to be reasonable, but at least Mitch McConnell is retiring…

      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.
