I feel like the GOP is in a sort of holding pattern where they simply will not be unseated in the House for a long while due to gerrymandering/general demographics of rural districts but at the same time they cannot make any real progress on the national stage with their current strategy and crop of frothing mad weirdo candidates. I am a little unsettled by how much progress they've made in downticket races; gaining control of state legislatures/installing Republican shill governors and pushing conservative think-tank model legislation through.

I also feel like their current fractious state WRT to national-level politics is almost inconsequential. Like even if they were completely united and voting as a single block all the time with no problems what exactly could they do that they aren't doing right now? I feel like they won't be seeing the presidency for a long time and it's possible the Senate could swing back into D control next election.

I keep waiting for them to dump the loons of all stripes and trek through the wilderness for a while but they absolutely refuse to change.

I dunno, I kind of want to make comparisons to the '12 primary where every freak led the polls for at least a week while Romney sat there looking perturbed with his hands folded, waiting. But who is The Romney this time? Jeb! (lol)? Rubio?
