I’m talking less about the executive branch than I am the legislative branch.

Then we’re stuck with semi permanent GOP control, then.
I doubt it, the DNC will likely run a faux-progressive campaign next election and perhaps win. However, the answer has always been revolution.

Even with a change, the US will continue to rocket rightward until it collapses.
