Or is the GOP too far gone to ever be civilized again? Not to leave out the name calling and bringing their kids into it too.
It’d still be extremely low brow and, if you weren’t aware, Nikki Haley is actually a lot worse on most issues than Trump - she’s not going to openly grift from the oval office but she’d struggle in a general election because she’s out and proud about her extremely restrictive views on abortion and regulations.
I can’t see the GOP as it is now going with her or any woman. Or really anyone but Trump, as he has opened the doors to allow them to be more of what they are. I get what the question is looking for, but the alternate history to lead to something like that would have diverged a long time ago with a very different now.
Mostly jelly wresting, pillow fights, wet t-shirt contests and bikini carwashes I imagine.

Kamala would still be great like now but on the other side it sure would improve things if they had a candidate which was not a rapist, felon and worse.
How do you expect them to find ANYONE with requirements that restrictive?

Two women vying against each other? Regardless of political ideology, the men would create a hellstorm of bullshit beyond anything else. The candidates views and speaches would be drowned out by male commentary galore.
It’d be a gargantuan mess and no-one would really know what was actually going on, decades later even.
Yay misogyny.
No.
Our political culture is the equivalent of an open dumpster that’s been hanging out in triple-digit heat all day.
99% of voters are going to vote Democrat or Republican no matter what, and the knowledge that you’re going to get most of the vote regardless of what you do creates little impetus for meaningful change.
Politics in this country have always been ugly. They always will be ugly.
