10. I tend to see it

from another point of view, namely, the extremism is what is killing the party. I doubt doubling down on an unappealing electoral strategy and anti-voter/xenophobic campaigning will be a winner. The nastiness they exude and which fuels their vengeance and grievance politic is a generational spasm of "not going calmly into that dark night". The pukes have nothing to offer. In the past they managed to propose things that people could buy into...heck, even trickle down managed to fool enough mainstream voters that it became national economic policy. As hollow as that was, it had more power to mobilize voters on the right. But now they are essentially the party that is trying to roll the clock back on civil rights, government oversight and regulation...perhaps I am being too kind...THEY want to DESTROY democracy.
That is not as appealing as they think.
I have faith in Americans to make better choices and to keep working until the job is done. The GQP is in a paroxysm of decay and "political cubism", a sleep of reason and the monsters it produced will not be vanquished until maga is dead. But then again, I see it dying daily. I even read that Orangeface will be indicted 7 times. That sounds like a winning strategy, for retiring from politics. We shall see, but it looks pretty good from here and the monsters under the bed are not real, because men are not monsters and no movement can succeed against the nation resolved to clean house. Cheers. GOTV! VOTE BLUE!!! It's GOOD FOR YOU!!!!
