I think the Republcans can reverse the damage if after the election they purge the angry racist element by pushing them out to let them form thier own party. Let them follow Trump out the door.
But if they continue to run scared they're screwed.
This is a case where the long game hurts the short game, but it's the only way they have a shot of not being f*kked for decades.
The problem with doing what you said is that is 30 to 40% of their voting block.

That is indeed the problem. If they get rid of the angry racist element, let them follow Trump or whatever, there's not enough left to win an national election.
If they go with their original mission of social liberalism, they lose the Religious Right, and then they could hold their convention at a Holiday Inn.
Think of all those Republicans in Congress who quit because they no longer recognized the GOP.
From Breitbart, huh? Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news too, but:
Among likely Hispanic voters, Clinton earns 65 percent of support compared to Trump’s 17 percent, the poll finds. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson earned 9 percent while Green Party candidate Jill Stein has 2.
A vast majority of Hispanics surveyed – 8 in 10 – have negative views of the Republican nominee. Seven in 10 have “very negative” feelings of Trump, according to the poll, while only 15 percent have a somewhat or very positive view of him.
Not just from Breitbart, but from 2012. The damage Trump has done to the relationship of the GOP to Hispanic voters may be irrevocable.
I highly doubt that. Most of the hispnics who have been here for generations (and there will be more of those to come) are against illegal immigration. My Hispanic family hates what it has done to their towns- gangs and poverty being one. It's the first generation immigrants who think that we should have open borders and everybody is entitled to come over illegally.
The point is less hispanics seem to be polling for a democrat.
And you can also say that more college graduates seem to be polling for a democrat. That's interesting, but it will take more than this election to establish either phenomenon as a long-term trend.
That wasn't the entire group, only 36 and older. It also includes undecideds and others. You won't get the full picture until after the election.
