I honestly (and I feel bad about it) agree with what Ann Coulter said a week or two ago.  His actions will cause the Republican Party harm on a level that no major party has experienced here.  Any member of Congress or the Senate that is complicit with him will suffer major electoral consequences in any part of the nation that isn't the Southeast.  If he continues on his current path, he will usher in an era of liberal control (outside of SCOTUS) that will stand for a decade.  Liberals did not make this scenario so.  Trump and his supporters did.  

I don't think Trump will finish the country.  He won't be able to hold on to power. The U.S. military won't back him. Violence won't become a way of life.

I rather agree with your summary of Coulter, though never Trumpers were already warning of this in 2016.

Trump will usher in an era of liberal control.  He is worse for the party than Nixon, whose party retained its health for a decade or so after him.
