    Eventually he’ll die. Nobody knows how the party’ll handle that, or what it’ll look like after

    History gives us some ideas… What happened after Alexander the Great died? Or Genghis Kahn…? The “empire” collapses into infighting and several “warlords” all vying to take the reins shatter into warring camps. It’ll be the end of the Republican party as we know it, and we’ll have 20+ minor groups, all with varying degrees of hatred fueling their “politics.”

      Immediately yes. But I’m thinking after that. Once the dust settled, what will the new Republican Party be like? That’s difficult to predict. Will it even be called the Republican Party? We’ll have to wait and see.
