Republicans never win because they were stupid enough, once upon a time, to allow into the party the freshly exiled 'conservative democrats' (now known as NeoCons), whose sole purpose in joining was to become a 'fifth column' to hamstring the Republicans from within....a task for which they have become quite skilled over the years. The second mistake was to allow in RINOs. In short, a promiscuous approach to their membership drive, improper vetting, and failure to weed out those malfiscents known to have infiltrated the party has all contributed to the current sickness of The Right.
What I don’t understand, is how do these RINOs stay in power? How is that they’re not voted out in a millisecond? How is it that they’ve managed to stay in power for so long?
Voting manipulation aside, is there any other reason? A dumbass voter pool that votes against their interests? I’m assuming that the ones who vote republican are already kinda/sorta against the main narrative so they are aware of the weakling qualities of their candidate so how is it that we keep these horrendous lizard people in office? Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, etc, are famous turncoats and have proven to be slime time and time again.
Once the establishment supports them they get a lot of funding. Primary candidates get squashed. Then it often comes down to voting for the R because people don't want a democrat in power.
It will be interesting to see how some of these MAGA Republicans do in the general this fall.
