We need an entirely new conservative wing
The Dems are the new conservative wing (i.e. Rightists), whether you like what that is or not. "Slam the brakes on every new development, intentionally make sure problems aren't fixed, keep giving power to the bureaucracy like we've done for the last 60 years" is not exactly a liberal thing, though I get that the term's been redefined away from what it used to mean.
GOP are reformers (i.e. Leftists), again, whether you like what that is or not. This is the "bureaucracy has done fine, but the regulations it's demanding are too expensive" people, which... well, looks like they're a natural complement to the new guys who are also saying this. It's more salient now that the US is poorer; those regulations were passed in a richer time.
It turns out you can't run a country based entirely on having a victim complex and a dream
The entire Anglosphere, and Western Europe, literally all do this. Have been for decades. Seems to have worked out well for the Establishment.
(The victim complex and dream is very gyno-centric; "It's Her Turn" and all that.)
