Will there be another GOP President

[Gog]

I doubt that. What up you will see is the GOP shifting to a more "libertarian" stance to accomadate socially moderate/liberal millennials.

Not until 2024 the earliest I think. And then I think Marco Rubio will be the favourite. If I were to guess the general election match up most likely to bear fruit come 2024, I would have guessed on a show down between Julian Castro (Texas) and Marco Rubio (Florida). In other words an all latino general. Could be pretty exciting.
Hopefully, Julian has thought himself Spanish in time for that occurance.

There are obviously other voices who will have a strong position come 2024 as well. Kirsten Gillibrand, Cory Booker, Brian Sandoval and Nikki Haley might be such candidates. Even Chris Christie won't be too old to run in 2024, neither will Rand Paul. So the options are near endless.

2016, the GOP was taken aback when Jeb failed as a candidate. He was clearly favored to be nxt president. Now, Clinton is favored over all GOP and is tied with Rubio. 2020 is gonna get worse and SCOTUS will definately change with nxt president. I think Kennedy was holding on until nxt term anyways

Of course. Political parties adapt in whatever manner they have to to be competitive, eventually. It may take some time for the extremists in that particular party to give in, but the GOP is certainly not dead.

Yes, maybe in the 2020's.

I've been saying the Republican Party will dissolve in the next decade, but increasingly I'm thinking that if the Democratic nominee is Hillary Clinton, and the Democratic base is not excited to vote, Republicans will win in 2016, just as they did in the low turnout elections of 2014 and 2015.

Seems unlikely at this point.

"Voter fatigue" is horsesh**t and supported by zero empirical evidence.  What does exist, however, are business cycles.  It's uncommon for capitalist economies to maintain more than 7-10 years of constant growth without a slowdown or recession interrupting it.  Now, recessions are hard to predict.  Economists are little better than witch doctors.  That said, I think it's likely that there will be another recession that'll hit sometime around either the 2016, 2020, or 2024 election.  So the chances of either party holding the presidency for the next three cycles is unlikely.

That said, the GOP is completely screwed long term.  People who legitimately think that the Midwest is "trending R" or that the party can win back the country by becoming socially liberal are delusional.  Studies have shown that partisan loyalties are essentially locked in place by the time a voter reaches 30 and that people, if anything, become more liberal as they age.  The GOP has pretty much done nothing to win over millennials, who are on pace to completely dominate the electorate by the mid 2030's.  In addition, of course, we have Hispanics and Asians (such as myself) who are growing as a percentage of the electorate and trending D.  Hard.

So I think that the Republicans might have another president, maybe even two more in them.  But I voted No anyway because lol why not.
