It seems like the Republican Party is starting to get split, by Trump ironically. Do you think its possible that another party would form by the group that gets phased out of the Republican Party over time?

I can see it. You will also see a split in who wants to uphold the constitution at all costs vs who can abuse the system to benefit their party

We already saw this "split" in 2016 and look how that turned out. It's always a fake as fuck attempt at making the opposition complacent in the voting booth. They did the same fake "split" in 2020 and still had record breaking R votes, only barely losing because the opposition wasn't as complacent this time. Republicans know actually splitting would be a losing strategy, it's never happening.

I don't get the logic behind a split at this point.

You aren't going to see a real split until you see them actually voting differently on real issues.

Yeah, Trump gave them a death grip on the judiciary, more tax cuts, messed with the census and drove Republican turnout into the stratosphere. What is there for Republicans to revolt against?
And theyre going to take back the House and Senate in 2022.

it's Trump's party now.

I don't think there are enough non-Trumpist republicans to form a distinct second party. I don't think there's even a real shot of them forming a distinct faction within the current party.

I feel like it's just more so the establishment or moderates of the DNC and GOP will work together more while the DSA/SJW types and the alt right screech at each other on facebook.
