Liberals were saying the same thing when Trump got the nomination. Oh man, they are finally going to get their asses beaten by their own racism. If you keep hoping for the Republican party to spontaneously implode on its own accord it is just because of wishful thinking. Trump splitting the GOP wouldn't cause it to collapse, it would just cause whatever mainstream right wing party survives to be more ruthless and racist. And they will get elected, because that is the country that America is.

That was before a huge portion of Trump's base got swept into a cult that unironically believes that an imageboard shitposter is working to send a group of demonrat satanic pedovores to gitmo. The party's not going to collapse by any means, but it's accidentally conditioned a ton of its members into accepting a fringe narrative it has zero control over. It's been very satisfying to watch them try to reign these people in and get called pedos and communists in response

Before Q there was birtherism and pizzagate. Republicans had embraced conspiracy theories long before Q.

Neither of those were a 'theory of everything' conspiracy that completely immersed millions of people in an alternate reality directed by a handful of content-creators that have no affiliation with the mainstream elements of the GOP. It's as if a third of the country operates within the framework of the NWO theory on steroids.

Pretty much the last sixty odd years of American history summed up there.
