Excelent piece Yash Raipal, you have pretty much explained it.

A way forward for Republicans is increasingly difficult. Mind you, I don't know what they now stands for apart from cementing their positions and an America in time. Moving on is not going to be in their favor for the reasons you outline.

I invite you to read and comment of course on "Donald's Ship Needs Sinking -- to the Bottom" a view of the current situation.

Good work and keep writing.
