  I'm super confused here.  I suggested that the Republicans need to disappear entirely, the Progressives splinter off to become a Left Wing Party and the remains of the Dems take the title as the Right Wing Party.  
  I also stated that this was highly unlikely to actually happen.
  At no point did I suggest or even imply that someone was going to have a conversation with fascists.  So where is that coming from?
context: The thing about republicans is there will always be a new extreme around the corner. In a few years they'll have another party face lift and all the current ones screaming about RINOs will be the new RINOs. We're basically stuck in the end of Mean Girls.
  It's super weird for guys like Crenshaw. He's had quite the fall. >
  
  You're 100% correct. They're just going to keep pushing their party further and further to the right, like they have been for the past 30 years. 
  And the Democratic Party is going to keep pushing itself further and further to the right as well, just like it has been doing for the past 30 years, to pretend to be "center" and "reasonable" and "moderate" to "show good faith" and "reach across the aisle" and "compromise in the interest of the greater good" etc.
  We need a real left in America. >
  
  That's the Overton Window in action.  The R's need to Whig-out, the Dems need to stay put and be the new Right Wing, and an actual Left Wing needs to spring up, borne of the progressives fleeing the Dems.  
  The Dems are right wing by most country's standards, and are only Left Wing by comparison to the Republicans.  
  But while I'm wishing for things that won't happen, I'd like to be fabulously wealthy and have a mansion. 
  ...who am I kidding?  I'd like to have enough money to retire early and the type of middle-class family home I was promised in the 90's. >
  
  Franz Von Papen was left of Hitler in Weimar Republic Germany, and attempted good faith political discussion with him >
  
  I'm not sure what point you are attempting to make here. >
  
  You can’t reason or conduct good faith political discourse with fascist extremists
