    I believe both the democratic and republican parties will be in the midst of a crisis of transition of leadership.

    Six more years could easily take out the big power brokers of both parties, and I see this leading to a large amount of infighting amongst both parties for platform control.

    For the Dems it’ll be between the establishment chosen successors and the progressive ascendants, it’s going to be a fight instead of a wash out because even convincing progressives to turn out for their own is like pulling teeth.

    For the Republicans it will be infighting sects of the cult of Trump. In a peak of Irony, I see faults forming in a manner similar to the Sunni Shi’a split, where the disagreements are mostly about who the true successor is.
