As long as the GOP stands, it occupies a political space and it cannot be ousted from that space, even by a supposedly better proposed party. With the GOP now holding the Presidency and Congress, the realistic and attainable goal is not to try to whip up a new party but instead to fund and organize an effort to recruit and elect better GOP candidates with a populist, pro-Trump slant. My guess is that to change the national political landscape, such an operation would take several hundred millions of dollars as a first year start, with more needed each year to support staff and candidates.

Not necessarily. The Whig party “stood,” but was replaced. The Federalists stood, but were replaced. The Democratic Republicans were replaced.

I understand, different times in terms of money, but what a man can conceive can be done.
