It’s been a long time since we’ve had a major redrawning of parties in the US - remember the Whig party? Heck, Dems and Repubs were once a single party - the Democratic Republicans.
I wonder if a loss would mean the effective end of the GOP, but perhaps a split in the Dems as more liberal (e.g. Basic Income supporters) break off from some more conservative Dems, leading to a new two party system…
Oh yeah for sure, I could see the GOP being saved by moderate liberals if the Democratic Party becomes the home of democratic socialism, but for that to happen the GOP would have to lose its socially conservative identity
