Wait and watch. There will be a thing called the GOP but it will not look like our current conception of the GOP. The conservative hand-wringing over Trump's complete indifference to the traditional platform is the first step in transformation.
We'll always have a two party system in the US. What the parties stand for changes drastically over time.
The thing I think most people don't get is that politics is never resolved. There will always be a fight. And in a two party system, no one party will stay in power more than a couple of election cycles. There's a homeostatic mechanism at play.
