Seriously, there are two outcomes for the gop. Either they embrace QAnon/Trumpism fully, and lose more elections as evidenced by the past elections, where the more the party went all in with QAnonTrump, the worse candidates did with voters, OR the party finds a way to support enough of the less odious issues these folks have (tightening up mail in voting) to at least pacify them while maintaining some level of rationality and civility and not ransacking the capital
Obviously the gop wants door #2.
A third option is possible, but historically unlikely. the Trump/QAnon people will primary every sane republican. If that's the case, then we'll see something like Perot/Clinton TRBullMoose/Woodrow Wilson, and the dems will win more elections as they "assimilate" more middle of the road gopers. But eventually the dems will not be able to hold both progressives and centerright, and the gop will return as it did with both W and Harding
