The "Republican Party" save a few old school holdouts, no longer exists. It became the party of Trump some time ago.

It's not a political party as we have defined them during the 20th Century.

What we have left are goose-steppers who have sworn to do the will of Donald Trump or his successors. The American electorate has one more chance, maybe two, to save our democracy. Personally I don't see it happening, people in this country are too stupid and self absorbed to govern themselves. They are ripe for the picking.
