What is the future of the Republican Party?

It is, but don't give a pass to voters. It doesn't take more than half a dozen functioning brain cells to see through what a guy like JD Vance is doing in Ohio.

Voters need to hold their politicians to a higher standard. They get the politicians they deserve.

Oh, no doubt. But that's a chicken/egg situation. Some people crave what right-wing media offers, so right-wing media offers more. As they become desensitized to that level of bulls#!ttery the media ramps it up. They feed off each other.

Politics is now about identity - what candidates say or do does not matter, especially for Republicans.

Weird bc I thought they hated identity politics. 

Wait a second. They used to rant and sow anger/fear about identity politics, but they also used to do the same about things like sharia law. If the roe v wade leak is any indication, maybe these things they make big stinks about are... just because they're jealous and want those things for themselves?

Maybe the Primary should be Mitt, Sasse, Trump, and DeSantis.  That should give every R a candidate of their liking to vote for and then we can see what shakes out.

Primaries on the Republican side are essentially a race-to-the-bottom since only highly motivated voters turn out.

The winner will be whichever candidate is willing to go further than the other. Who has less shame between Trump and DeSantis?

Personally, I want Abbot to join. It would be entertaining to see the three of them out crazy the other. Sure, it's bad for the country but who cares. Might as well make the accelerated decline of America entertaining.

He is one that I can see being jettisoned by the party. He's chaos personified, and he doesn't know how to keep a lid on it.

There have been some crazy people in congress over the years, but most of them have the ability to ramp the crazy down. I don't think that's him, and I wouldn't be half surprised if some of these leaks are friendly fire.
