IMO it's more likely than people think considering the nationalisation and presidentialisation of US politics. Just have an independent candidate win the presidency, whose party then cannibalises the Dems or Reps. This is basically what happened to the French Socialist Party after Macron won.
Imagine if Perot had won in 1992 and is super popular because of the 90s economy, enough voters defect to the Reform Party, permanently marginalising the Democratic Party which after having won one presidential election since 1968 collapses.
