There will never* be only one viable party. If the Republican party fails, either a third party will become a big competitor to the Democrats or the Democratic party will split. This won't be the first time a party goes away if they do. We've had this happen several times in US history.
*There may be only one large viable party for a short time while things organize around whatever comes next, but it won't be significant.
I guess I just don't trust people enough.
