Reagan/GHWB (R) 12 years
Carter (D) 4 years
Nixon/Ford (R) 8 years

Eisenhower (R) 8 years
FDR/Truman (D) 20 years

If you can see any pattern in this, then tell me.
It is far too early to count the GOP out. Even if Trump proves to be a disaster as a President, the GOP will survive. Even if it goes into the woodwork as it did in the 1930s it will be welcome to people shut out of the political process by machine politics, people outside the D coalition, and radical reformers, Left as well as Right, who run afoul of the Democratic Party.
