Though I do think if/when Trump goes away that things do get better
What is the most recent example of republicans “getting better”?
I’d like to say for Dems it was Clinton to Obama, but did it really?
The harsh reality is republicans have been in free fall for generations, and Dems just jumped out of the plane a couple minutes later.
The quality of both keeps dropping, and while D will always be better than R, that’s obviously not enough.
So yeah I think you’re right that the base problems are still there but much of the power they have now is in Trump and would go away with him.
They said the same after Nixon, Reagan, HW Bush, and little Bush…
Their power is our political system where unpopulated states are overly represented on the federal level. At the bare minimum we need to unfreeze the House so at least one part is tied to population rather than number of states.
People in flyover states can have 10x the reprentation as someone from a populous state, and that’s in the House.
Well I said ‘things will get better’ meaning overall I think the world is better and the GOP as it is without Trump has less of a grip on their electorate. I definitely don’t think the GOP gets better as I said: ‘the base problems are still there’.
