I really wouldn't be surprised if they started another party that fragmented the right's base so severely that they party is crippled for at least a decade. Oh and the most critical component that's delayed it this long is gerrymandering, which Obama has already said will be his focus moving forward. Let history piss on the rotten corpse of conservatism forevermore.

Mandals posted:I honestly lay a lot of the blame for how lovely things are squarely at the feet of people like Ailes, Murdoch and Limbaugh. They’ve spent decades semi-literally brainwashing a sizable chunk of the populace and the aftermath is going to be brutal for everybody. Trump is merely the symptom of the systemic rot that the right wing has carefully nurtured since the 70s. I totally agree and it was the main reason I started this thread. ToxicSlurpee posted:Yeah the right as a whole isn't going to learn a single damned thing from this election. They'll find a way to say that Trump was an insider all along (he had TV shows and everything! He's part of the media and obviously was in on the whole lieberal conspiracy!) and look for somebody to blame rather than actually look at themselves. This is exactly what they're going to do. We're going to hear the same poo poo we always have. "America can't take 4, 8 more years of this. Socialism is gonna take over! Blah blah blah". The propoganda merchants don't care.

You know there's a difference between herpes simplex v1 and v2, right? V2 (that generally causes genital herpes) is not nearly as common as v1 (which is what causes cold sores around the mouth). And even then its not as common as you're making it seem. There's around 40 million Americans with v2 as opposed to 100 million with v1 out of aprox. 320 million total. Maybe you were thinking of HPV, which actually is around 70% of all Americans affected?

ZobarStyl posted:Just a decade? As I see it the GOP is already well along on the Whig path to total irrelevance. They've ceded most of an entire generation, every nonwhite demographic and now a massive chunk of the female vote. They cannot rebrand, that already failed. They can't pivot, the idiot base will devour themselves. And the groups that they've alienated will never even entertain the idea of voting R again. All this while their hateful supporters die off and are not replaced. The GOP will live another few decades as a rump party with governorships and state level control in poo poo states filled with bigots, but they're done on a national scale. They'll never wash off the stench of being the Party of Trump. Much as I want this to finally happen, I'm not sure if it will come to pass. It really depends on just how short the memories and how ignorant of Trump's views being shared by most of the GOP the average conservative voter. That said, if the Democrats manage to curtail gerrymandering, it probably is over for the republicans.

A credible outcome to seems to be him losing, refusing to accept it, and then parlaying his sway with the alt-right base into some kind of political/media force that pulls his supporters away from the Republican party into their own disconnected political sphere at odds with both parties (like the Dixiecrats) and probably costs the RNC at least the next national election when they run their own third-party George Wallace. Systemically the Republican agenda just doesn't appeal to a majority of voters nationwide, and hasn't for a long time. They've been able to cover the gap with aggressive gerrymandering and voting restrictions, but that's not a sustainable long-term strategy.

More than a few established media figures, like Hannity and Alex Jones, will stick by him, not to mention Breitbart News. He is the culmination of a conservative undercurrent that has been gathering steam since George HW Bush. And polls have shown repeatedly that when asked to pick between Trump and the party, over 60% of conservatives said they side with Trump. Thankfully, he's too much of a horrible clown to work, presently. But the next version will not be. The Democratic party better be working on the new Obama to capture the young vote.

I'm going to cut against the conventional wisdom and say that Trump's post-election media operation is going to flop and have trouble finding an audience. First, every business he touches turns to poo poo, and we've seen over the course of the last year that his brain is slowly transforming into tapioca. Second, after November he'll be a loser. Trump's entire appeal is that he's a big shot who gets things done and winning winner who wins. His whole alpha male dominance routine will be shattered by getting beaten by 10 million votes in a historic loss to a girl. Who is going to pay a monthly fee to watch a losing loser (who lost) talk whine how he woulda shoulda won that crooked rigged election? Trump best play would be to convince other investors (maybe gullible foreigners) to fund his network, pay himself an inflated salary and licensing fee, and walk away rich when the network collapses into rubble a year or two later. But even that looks like a longshot - given what's been exposed over the last year about how Trump does business and treats his partners, who would invest a single nickle into anything this guy is doing? Finally, there have been many efforts to try and build a right-wing news/advocacy network in recent years, and they've all fizzled. Sarah Palin? Glen Beck? Pajamas Media? Even the older RWM institutions (FoxNews, Limbaugh and his imitators) are having to deal with shrinking audiences. The time to launch a right-wing network was 10-20 years ago, not now. The market will support a new Trump-branded RWM network about as well as it will a new nationwide dial-up ISP. e: or, what Dr. Killjoy said

This. Isn't this the exact same path Palin went? She even did some sort of weird Palin TV right? I just hope the results of this election actually somehow cost Trump money and business, (I know it won't) but I think that's the only way he would realize he really lost anything in November...

The GOP, the conservative base and especially RWM aren't going anywhere, even if they can't win elections legitimately anymore. They think they're under attack by propaganda and totalitarian, fascist socialists who are just like HitlerI and seem to be completely oblivious to the the reality that they are the ones who are, in fact, embracing those things. They want a Christian, theocratic dictatorship and have been taught for decades now that this it Right, True and All American. I think the real end result of this whole shitshow will be just another tick to the right for the Overton Window.
