An underrated possible future is that in a few months time Donald Trump loses the election and then spends the rest of his life in court and in jail for his many crimes. Like, this could definitely be how things go

Last year, I said about the same as a prediction, but with Trump dying within a year following the election and denying us any sort of real justice.

gonna be great in 20 years' time when the Dems are eulogizing Trump as "a great man, a worthy President, an intelligent man of culture and generosity"

In twenty years time, I expect them to be the the right-wing corpo-establishment replacement for the GOP they've always wanted to be.

At this point I feel like "Republicans collapse for a while, centrist Dems become the new major right-wing party, the more left side eventually splits off" is about the ideal outcome

Dems are collapsing faster. Don't know how that could be more evident

IMO, it all depends on how things shake out after Trump's gone/dies. Maybe it'll stay strong, but I think his cult will collapse some with him. Dems, for all their many flaws and bad polling (I'm a bit skeptic), aren't as subject to that dynamic and might even do better with Biden gone.

i think that the deranged Christofascist wave of the GOP will remain after Trump's death but it will be significantly crippled without an icon to rally around honestly i would argue that the Dems' problem is that they DON'T have an ideological rallying point other than "maintain the status quo"
