I will say it again, the Republican Party should go the way of the Whigs and Know Nothings. I am all for Trump calling for a new convention to form a new political party.

I will bet there are folks in his orbit that make such an argument, and he may well be giving it thought after his firsthand experience with how unreliable the current structure is.

There is a real question, however, especially with a RINO litmus test applied, about whether there are enough MAGAs available today to populate a successful R party (at least by election).

It seems likely a national or even global catastrophe is required to give us the space for such an undertaking.

Correct.

The GOP is dying the same death as the UK Conservative and Union party, and for the same reason.
