It won't happen, but it's time for the Republican Party to take action

They failed to take action during the so-called tea party revolt almost 10 years ago.

And my guess is that despite the condemnation buy some Republicans about today's events, they'll continue to take no action.

But if they had any sense, they would oust all far right wing members of the party, including members of Congress, Tell them there is no place for them in the party and that if they want to continue this movement, they must form their own party. The GOP will not associate itself in anyway with these kinds of behaviors. Failure to do that pretty much towers the entire party with the neo Nazi brush. Sadly, if this were to happen, my bet is that the larger party would be the neo Nazi one, not the so-called mainstream Republicans.
