^So much this. Political parties have platforms which they hope will become policies which they hope to turn into laws. The GOP have none of these, they are simply obstructionists.
I doubt very much, though, that an actual purge will be needed. As long as the republicans continue to camp out on the far right and refuse to become centre-right, they will keep sliding into insignificance.
And if they DO become centre-right, they’ll effectively be Democrats. It wouldn’t surprise me if, in ten years or so, the GOP will have all the political clout of the proverbial bucket of warm piss. USian politics will remain a two-party system, but those parties will be Democrats and Progressive Liberals.

That would be great, but ~1/4 of the population would still be shitty actors.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
