Whither the Tiny-Tent Party?

Let's play the game along with Republicans. They lost the POTUS yet again in 2012 and followed that with the promies and (dare we say) hope of the Growth & Opportunity Project (G.O.P.). That jocularly named autopsy detailed the failures, forecasted the demographic trends, and mandated what they needed to do to fill up a big tent of women, African Americans, Latinos, and, well, Democrats.

The lameness of pary head Reince Priebus and ticket head Donald Trimp seem the antithesis of the autopsy findings. Assuming the obvious Hillary Clinton victory in two weeks, do Republicans:
Accept that they can only get the voted of poorly educated white men?Cling to being "the party of Lincoln" even though the modern bastardization couldn't be farther from his ideals?Try to live with a splintered and split personality of far right extremists, bigots and other anachronisms?Do another deep dive and this time really try to follow the analysis findings?
They really have become an asylum or other institution of dysfunctional quasi-adults. 

For the Democrats, if they can't geet control of at least the Senate (thus installing judges and preventing the Tea Party pledge of impeachment and other vengeance against Clinton, then what? Ideally, they could get control of most legislatures in the 32 states that let their local lawmakers do the Census Year redistricting. Republicans were brilliant and ruthless in gerrymandering. What is the Dem strategy?
