The other party will win at some point as the pendulum always swings, and right now the left knows no moderation.

Financial Analyst Martin Armstrong has charted the ups and downs of the democrat party. The most seats they ever had in Congress was during FDR's administration. Then the pendulum swings to the republicans. When it swings back to the democrats, they do get the majority again, but never at the level they did previously. In contrast, in 2016 was the high point for the republicans, the most seats they have had since the 1920s or so. Today, the democrats have one half of one third of the federal government. Martin is predicting that if the current trend holds, by the 2030s, the democrat party will not exist anymore, it will break up. Considering how there are factions in the party already fighting each other, that seems possible to me.

Regardless, at what point is so much damage done to the economic infrastructure of our country that it cannot be repaired, even with Republican majorities in all three branches?

Trump aggressively rescinded many of Obama's unauthorized regulations and executive orders, but what if we get some "polite," milquetoast Republican in the future? One who got elected to "tap the brakes" on an overly-aggressive and ambitious Democrat agenda?

I pray that we don't ever get such a Republican; Trump has shown them how we must govern, and the days of being polite, of going along to get along will never be effective, and that the press will hate you regardless of your stance.

My hope is that the Supreme Court will overturn any outright socialistic legislation, as it should be un-Constitutional, but we've already seen how Roberts seems to find ways to finding ways to defend their positions.

That would be feasible if the population were static. Gallop reports 2M plan to come to the US (legally or illegally) that would change the dynamics completely.
The Dems only have to convince them to vote to give dems the power to provide them benefits from the US treasury. Easy Peasy.
