The lead editorial of the New York Times Sunday declares that the Republican Party will die with President Donald Trumps defeat in the November election. Under the headline R.I.P., G.O.P.: The Party of Lincoln had a good run. Then came Mr. Trump, the Times editorial board argues:
Of all the things President Trump has destroyed, the Republican Party is among the most dismaying.
Destroyed is perhaps too simplistic, though. It would be more precise to say that Mr. Trump accelerated his partys demise, exposing the rot that has been eating at its core for decades and leaving it a hollowed-out shell devoid of ideas, values or integrity, committed solely to preserving its own power even at the expense of democratic norms, institutions and ideals.
Mr. Trumps corrosive influence on his party would fill a book. It has, in fact, filled several, as well as a slew of articles, social media posts and op-eds, written by conservatives both heartbroken and incensed over what has become of their party.

Excuse me if I don't take their concern trolling to be in good faith, considering their active shilling for the Democratic Party.
I dont get the impression the NYT is all that solvent these days.
The RP May last longer than it does.
Dewey Defeats Truman
Memo to the wishful thinking NY Times toilet paper outlet, reverse logic dictates that a Trump win ensures that the Democrat Party will die, as well, yes?
I wonder if they are just trying to scare the country-club RINOs who still think the NYT has relevance in order to get them to abandon Trump and Trump-ism.
Nominating an incoherent, meandering, China-blackmailed, basement-hiding candidate like Joe Biden will pretty much destroy the Democratic party.
Not to mention all the rioting, looting and arson committed by Democrat Storm Troopers.
Question: Between Dems and Reps, whos going to suck down more alcohol over this election?
One thing I realize with clarity now is that the Rats and their media chimps are all about projection. They accuse Trump of the corruption they have long committed, the division they cause, and now they project the true fate (death) of their favored party.
We are all socialists now. Nope
After the election Trump is going to have rats kissing his ass. Along with every Pub that has been again him. Trump is going to own em all.
I remember in the 70’s after Warergate and Carter’s election an article in Time magazine saying this same thing.
I was mid teens and remember thinking that’s sad. I took it on face value, being a kid.
They never write how the Democrats are dead.
“I remember in the 70s after Warergate and Carters election an article in Time magazine saying this same thing.”
Ironically, Lanny Davis, then called “Lanny J. Davis” wrote “The Emerging Democratic Majority” at the time of Watergate. A few short years later, Reagan was president.
They may be partly right, especially if the Rats run the table. It could end the party.
But if it’s the end of the Pubs, it was RINOs & gutless wonders who’ve strung us along and refused to exercise their majority powers when they had them. Donald Trump didn’t destroy the party - he’s been almost singlehandedly fighting to preserve it, as well as the country as we know and love it.
This comment was made while a homeless man on the street was using thier news paper as toilet paper, be still my heart
They’re really setting up their followers for disappointment. Oh well! Not my problem.
NYT: "The Party of Lincoln had a good run, but after 155 years, we want our Slaves back."
They were convinced that after they pushed Nixon out that they had insured total power for decades. They were convinced again after Obama was elected that the Republican party was dead. Trump being elected devastated them even more than Reagan. I really believe they will go to any length to grab permanent absolute power.
