Democrats do not want the Republicans and they do not need the Republicans any longer to keep up the pretense of "Our Democracy"(tm). For that matter, the show is in its' last season. It is about to be cancelled and replaced by a new "reality" show. I hear it is provisionally called "World War 3".
Republicans are too stupid to notice the change. They still believe they can keep their phony baloney jobs.
The "rules" are shifting underneath all our feet.
I think we're heading into an one party state. Biden in '24, Newsom in '28 and '32. Newsom will replace the Conservatives on the SCOTUS during his administration. And that'll be the end of the American Republic.
Likely the Second Amendment will be "grandfathered". They'll allow MAGA nation to own firearms for the time being. But they'll make it that it'll be difficult for Gen Z to own them. Just like that, you have a totalitarian nation.
