I sure hope you're right, and by that I mean I hope they have to restructure so as to shed the crazy alt-right section of the party back into the fringes.
This is the interesting thing to me in the US. Despite what politicians say, Democrat does not equal left. Democrat equals center for the most part now, while Republican is just reaaaallly far right now.
Republicans gave up on being the pro-business, pro-capitalism party when they decided that loyalty to Dear Leaders is more important than economic prosperity.
Responsible business leaders don't want someone like DeSantis in power — someone who decides to attack successful businesses for extremely mild political dissent, undermines the economy to score anti-immigrant hate points with his base, wrecks educational institutions that train young workers, and so on. That shit is not how to keep capitalism working.
The Republican ideal of a successful business is a theft or fraud enterprise led by a politically-reliable mini-tyrant.
All signs show the GOP is about to repeat 1974. Democrats won 30 of 34 Senate seats, gained 49 seats in the House, and too 31 of the 37 Gubernatorial seats.
I'll believe it when I see it. They said the same thing about 2016, and then we got this for four years. Said the Dems had it in the bag. Said there was no chance he'd win.
I sure hope so, but I learned not to underestimate how cynical they can get. They’ll try to do some really slimy shot before they allow a collapse, and unfortunately the system is rigged just enough that it might work.
