C. Dems win HARD, the Republicans collapse, and are replaced by whatever is next. Bring on the 7th party system.

A sane Republican party is a unicorn at this point. The foundation is rotted, and the right has spent decades catering to the worst impulses of their base. What's left to salvage but nostalgia at this point? GOP delenda est.

One of the good features of the two party system that people forget: Hypermajorities always break into faction or give rise to a new challenger. the fall of the Fedralists made space for the Whigs, just as the Whigs demise proved fertile (and free) soil for the growth of the GOP.
