Well what's colossal about the missed opportunity is that it circumscribes the entire era, not just this moment of broad GOP pseudo-control.

(It always had to be pseudo-control, since the anti-government party is constrained from coherently exploiting formal "control" of govt)

(meanwhile the culturally ascendant, formally out-of-power party of govt can exploit system paralysis itself against dismantlement of govt)

(so: the stationary state, eroding entropically, searching for the crisis that may demand or allow for true "progress" – or mayn't)
