The way I see it, if Trump is impeached and convicted by the Senate, many Republican members of Congress would basically be admitting they elected a corrupt person to be President of the United States. I don't see how they could get over that in the near future. We may not see another Republican president for 20 or more years.
What makes you think the Democrats can win the White House again without President Trump to run against?

pretty much
their backlash is here and there will be more to come in abundance
Mostly because they’re just Demicans and Republicrats. We’ve almost been programmed that these are the birthright inhabitants of our system. They’ll swap every so often until we realize we’ve been had.
I don't know. Trump won using tactics that haven't been used by any presidential candidate in my lifetime. Was he a "one off", or did he create the blueprint for someone smarter and far more dangerous to use in the future?
That terrifies me. I could see one of his kids trying to run in 2024.

That's what people said after Bush. Bush left a big mess and many thought it could never get worse than that, but the mess Trump has left makes Bush not seem so bad.

It will have to be somebody charismatic and who has a way of speaking and convincing people like Trump did who can also unite the fundamentalist Christians, the alt-right, and blue collar whites in the Rust Belt. It also has to come at a time when much of the country is overtaken by fear of cultural changes and wants to return to a more simple time rooted in traditional values and social hierarchies (this is what we saw in 2016 in response to the legalization of same-sex marriage and the increased visibility of transgender people).
That's a lot of ingredients that have to come together and for Trump, they all did. People like that don't come around very often.

are you under 25 year old?
I'm an early millennial. Back when i was still in high school in the late 90s, they said Republican/Conservative will be extinct in 10 years because millennial will be the largest voting block in the future.
and then we got GWB for 8 years and Trump in 2016.
