The problem is the leadership in Congress. I’m convinced of this. They need to clear them out and put proper conservatives in charge only then will things change.
Yeah but it’s really hard to beat somebody in a primary. The game is fixed. The money needed, the people needed, the crazy primary rules.
we would need to give up two cycles of elections to build a real Conservative Republican base.
Ironically we did that when Obama won twice but we didn’t do it on purpose. That led to a real conservative president.

night ‘16 Hillary’s blue wall fell and
the state that seemingly put Trump
over the top was PA. Other than Phi and Pitt, working class, rural etc
