The Republican Party spent 4 full terms in exile once... Over 16 years outside the Whitehouse.
Survived.
Republican President that pulled them out of that epic losing streak was Eisenhower. FDR wilfully forced the Democrats to bend to his will and the pressure of WW2 made the American public agree with him, even though he was completely trashing the two-term democratic tradition set by George Washington and FDR was acting like a fucken Dictator himself (even if it was a benevolent one, "only doing it for Nobel reasons".... He still did a Chancellor Palpatine as it's called now).
