Oh yeah, the party's base is radicalized, and the establishment are all in on fascist dictatorship time. It's just a matter of who wins the succession fight, and if they can hold it, and steal it if need be, with their new leader during the fight. Vance won't get it, someone will take it from him.

The project 2025 people, the religious right, their business dickheads, and their assorted partizans are all in on it, anyone with loyalty to country, and elections, over the party, has been purged after they gave themselves away in 2020, and none of them were purged, not in government and bureaucracy, after 2020 either because Biden let them all get away with it, so noble to let captured agencies fail in their statutory duties in the most basic of their missions, preventing the republic from being killed in all but name with elections fixed, but I digress.

The only way out is popular reform by a strong opposition leader that organizes the opposition, and knows how to build and run a political machine, and we won't seemingly have that, so Republicans get to carry on their shit show it appears.
