The GOP was sinking before Trump ever entered the picture. Its credibility was destroyed by GWB, who I regard as the worst president of the last 50 years (yes, worse than Carter). Remember the presidential disasters that were Romney and McCain? Now the same people who brought you those disasters are selling the narrative that Trump is "destroying" the GOP. Trump saved the GOP from itself in 2016. Yes, he has had a spotty record since then, but let's not delude ourselves into thinking that the stupid party wasn't the stupid party long before Trump.
