Has Donald J. Trump done irreperable damaged to the Republican party?

[KostasKouvalis]

I don't think the Republicans will win another election for a long time, and I won't even be sad or angry. I think it will take generations to reverse the damage that Trump has done to the reputation of the Republican party.

I'll tell you for free that he hasn’t destroyed the party.. While he completely rewrote the traditional GOP playbook and alienated a lot of old-school establishment Republicans, he also built a massive, fiercely loyal base and flipped voting demographics that Democrats used to take for granted.
In American politics, parties don't just disappear; they adapt. Love him or hate him, Trump didn't break the Republican party... he transformed it into a populist movement, and the GOP remains a highly competitive, formidable force in elections.

Not as much as the DSA 🤷‍♂️
Watch Republicans perform better than expected during midterms.
Democrat aren't particularly popular, even with their own voters.

Trump is just a symptom, people voting for him are the issue and who did the real damage.

[KostasKouvalis]

No. The REAL issue was the Democrat party. Trump was simply the result of years of Liberal opression and incompitence. How were they to know he would betray them and proof to be incompitent?

If anything, Trump, who is now a virtual lock to go down as one of the greatest leaders in the history of humanity, saved the GOP. That he was able to pull off such a feat, particularly after the dreadful Obama/Biden/Skamala era of national sabotage, is the stuff of legends.

I can't tell if you're joking or being serious

[Billlewis]

Oh, I'm 100% serious. Much, if not most, of the opposition to Trump has nothing to do with his administration's policies or actions, but rather a dislike of him personally. But this isn't a high school popularity contest; the future of the free world is riding on what happens in the current era. That's why every single one of our enemies wants to see the Dems win.

[Smegskull]

Parties are BS anyway. They are all about ganging up against what/who you don't like rather than promoting what/who you do like.

[BonzoInBitburg]

You'll get your answer in November.

[fishbone77]

The republicans in Congress are damaging the republican image way more than Trump.

More importantly, to America.
