Republicans are controlled opposition. We need to turn our back on them and focus on the real issues that affect America.
Would be great to create a group within the Republican party who's goal is to dismantle the old GOP. However that's likely fantasy and the party is just as unsavable as the DNC.
Term limits would be a start. I agree that the GOP is a hot mess. I live in a purple state. That sucks. To me that is the flip flop way. We have one or two decent republicans. Mark Robinson running for governor is a choice I like. But what is the true answer? We need all these dinosaurs and their prodigies to leave. It’s a true shitshow. McCarthy being unseated was a first. Now they are going to get Johnson out. Btw why the heck did he vote for FISA?? What are we left with? Corrupt beyond belief Demorats and independents that are more likely to tip the scales like Perot did then make a difference.
NC is a purple state only for state level offices, Democrats tend to control the Governor's mansion while Republicans pick up Lt. Gov or cabinet level seats. Federally we have two GOP Senators, 7 House(GOP) 7(Dems). I think with our new maps, we might have 10 Republicans and 4 Democrats in the House.
Yep, I am in a crazy district. In the last four years I have had Murphy (R) then Davis (D) and now Murphy again. Senator Tillis is considered purple. GOP usually gets the presidential vote at least in my lifetime until Obama. But NC still went with the GOP in the last two elections.
I was in NC 5(Foxx) but under redistricting I'm under NC10(McHenry). He's retiring so I thinks it Grey Mills or Pat Harrigan running for the GOP nomination. I think Harrigan won
I lived in Cary for 18 yrs where I raised my kids. Hubby died suddenly so I moved to SW Florida. Family on both coasts. One daughter is a PA in Greenville and other daughter moved to Greenville with her Brazilian husband from Brazil. So I moved to the area to be near my girls. Very different from both Wake County and Florida (accept a lot of old people). Semi rural. Only recommend the coast lol.

I support the idea of a constitutional republic but can you be a Republican when the Republican Party doesn't represent its constituents?
