Exactly. The solution does not lie within the GOP. It lies elsewhere. A fresh start. A third party that gains power only after the GOP’s rot from within is nearly complete.
And the Democrats will be so utterly exposed for what they are that this new party just might leech members from both. There is no small number of Democrats that hate that party but have almost a gene that causes them to hate the GOP even more. The solution is a third conservative party.
Of course, things will have to get pretty bad for it to happen, as they did to get rid of the Whigs. But anyone with open eyes sees the scenario is playing out all around us as I type this.
The way things are set up in this system now, a 3rd party is a long shot. I don’t see this thing changing short of the whole rotten structure collapsing under the weight of debt and cultural dysfunction or at gunpoint.
Time to dream another dream; this dream is over.
