Reps are on borrowed time.
So are the democrats.
You don't seem to understand. The democratic party is not the party of its base.
For about 30 years, beginning with Bush Sr, the republican party was moving away from its base, at the direction of neoconservative morons. Those people are gone now. One way or another the right now at least understands that they were listening to the wrong people and saying the wrong things.
This same cycle began in earnest for the democrats with Obama. Obama was not a far leftist. I understand that some on the right see him that way but he wasn't a far leftist.
Bernie Sanders is to the democrats, what Pat Buchanan was to the republicans.
Biden will probably win, and Harris will probably get some time in office because Biden isn't mentally fit for the job.
But Harris won't be what the far left wants her to be. She won't because she's a political opportunist who merely talked like a zealot. Inside, there's just self interest.
There is a reckoning coming for the democratic party; they cannot hold it off forever, sooner or later there will be a consequence for trying to create a coalition between moderate liberals and radical progressives. High taxes drive moderates to go conservative faster than anything else in politics, because in the end it really is all about money, and the progressives want a lot of it.
Now, as for the internet...
Anyone who was thinking that a solution to the problems of the internet would come from the state, is a moron.
The internet's solutions will always be emergent, organic solutions. We've done a lot, but we haven't gone far enough. SubscribeStar is a start, Parler is a start. DotWin is a start. But we have to go to the next level, creating new competing CDNs and cloud hosting systems.
The internet remains ancapistan in literally all ways, including the ways that lead to monopolies.
Lastly, how do the republicans recover?
They need to concede that they lost the culture war on abortion. Trump turned them around on gay marriage, and that was a start, but ultimately the GOP does need to come to terms with the fact that they lost that war and cannot keep fighting it because it's a fight they can only ever manage to stalemate. It will sort itself out biologically.
As a party, they need to focus on a uniting message of nationalism, military non-interventionism, liberty, private gun ownership, and low taxes. And they need to shut down the occasional loon that bangs on about social security. Trump was right that entitlement programs are, broadly speaking, very popular with old people.
