Yeah. That sounds about right.

I think it will be scaled back, and possibly done away with - in order to pass the Voting Rights Act. The Voting Rights Act - will kick some of the new state level restrictive voting legislation and gerrymandering to the curb.
If they pass that Act, then yes - the Republican Party most likely will begin to disappear into irrelevancy. And lose the Senate within two years. With no candidate getting very far into the elections of 2024 and onwards. If they keep going the way they are - the Presidential Elections may well be decided within the Democratic Primaries, or with be a Democrat vs. an Independent, with the Republicans in third party status.
If they don't pass it? We're stuck with the fascist bastards.
