Once they get done playing the deflect the blame game(i.e. it's all of those brown people's fault), I believe they absolutely will double down on their conservatism. When you scare off the moderates of your party, as they have done, you're going to be left with only the lunatic fringe. If I was an optimist, I would say that this election was the begining of the end of the Republican party unless it changes its ways, but I am no such thing.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
