Maybe you’re correct, but in your scenario, while we were waiting for a new party to coalesce, the Democrats would unimpeded single party rule at all levels of government.

A coalescing successor party to the GOP would find itself squeezed on all sides by the government and the media by a fully powerful single party.

What do they have now? The same thing, only as kabuki theatre.

The Republicans in congress just gave Obama full funding for his Middle East refugee resettlement program.

You're saying that like that's not already the case.
Remember what the Republicans have done over the last decade?

  1. Remember how hard they fought to keep fiscally responsible policies and actually have a balanced budget?
  2. Remember how they stood against the overreach of the Patriot Act?
  3. Remember how they stood against the NDAA that, conceivably, authorized drone-strikes on US Citizens?
  4. Remember how hard they fought Fast & Furious and to bring those perpetrators to justice?
  5. Remember how hard they fought to find the truth behind Benghazi and bring those perpetrators to justice?
  6. Remember how hard they fought against the IRS's political targeting?
  7. Remember how hard they fought against the NSA's domestic espionage?
  8. Remember how hard they fought against the Iran deal?
I remember a whole lot of nothing for the answer to those questions.
I also remember just before the 2014 elections the Republican leadership was boasting about how it was going to push amnesty through.
