#2 Decimated everyone but the a$$holes, that is. And the RINOs who sheltered in place.

#3 And yet they are still doubling and tripling down on the stupid that has failed them so well in the past.

#5 Given the opportunity, most rational people reject communism.

#7 Geez I really needed some good news this morning...

Kinda brings a tear to your eye doesn't it.

I once asked a lefty spouting the joys of Communism and asked him to name a successful communist society...he kinda went into frothing, spittle filled, twitching fit and left the party.

#8 But the Republican party is the party of stupid. That will give the Dems time to reconstitute.

#9 I'm afraid gorb is right.

#13 We've seen this before, and it's been said about the Republicans as well.

#14 So, what's going to replace the Democratic party - unless you want to live in a one party system?

#15 Yet another positive checkbox for his administration.

#16 I wouldn't worry about the Democrat Party. They were in disarray when Ronald Reagan got elected too. They have an amazing ability to bounce back which I think can be attributed mainly to the short memories of the electorate, MSM bias and Republican stupidity.

#17 Pretty typical for both parties Abu.

It isn't like the Republicans have some earth shattering and mind blowing new things. They are just in power now because they ain't the demoncrats.

The left will get back into power because the Republicans will show themselves to be little better than anyone else.

#18 What gorb said. In the immortal words of that great philosopher, Han Solo:"Don't get cocky, kid!" Never underestimate the power of the Stupid Republican Party to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

#19 Either party gets corrupted if they have the reins too long.

#20 So, what's going to replace the Democratic party - unless you want to live in a one party system?

There is an effort to imitate the Tea Party awakening among the young Sanders supporters. If they roll with the current anti-globalist agenda, how about National Socialist?

Nah, the Democrat party will continue on, too much organizational foundation to just pull stakes and fold tent. What it will be in a year is an interesting question. If enough youth go Sandernista and enough minorities go 'hey Trump is alright after all' it will be a party of mostly aged hippies and soccer moms.

#21 Soccer moms vote Republican, swksvolFF, and this time many of them voted for Mr. Trump in the end. It's single women who mostly vote Democrat.

#22 Corrected; thinking of the ones I know; I believe you are right about this last election, with the across-the-board Republican win.

What is interesting is Obama and Trump were essentially off the bench, rather than an established starter (McCain, Romney, Clinton).
