Increasingly the activists like the Anti-fa masked paramilitary and to a lesser extent the TEA party do not share the same agenda as the financiers of the political parties. The Ds are in the most immediate trouble because the Blue states are busy losing both tax base and population. If the activists keep going the Ds will lose more seats at the state and local levels where both parties are competitive. The finances of the left coast and northeast quarter are headed towards Chapter 3 bankruptcy with ever higher crimerates and lower tax base.
So, the current D party will become ever more regional and ever more radical with the most radical Ds being in the gerrymandered districts of red states. For example TX has precisely one competitive congressional district. FL will most likely join that group in 2022. So, that outcome is fairly predictable. But what about the Rs?
The country club R campaign contributors and the R activist base do not share a common agenda. Without an effective national D party, which is nearly the case now, what will hold the GOP together?
