6. Really skewed political thinking
and in public no less. Why reveal your disdain so publicly for the gas that drives the grassroots engine? The GOP only exists because of theirs and their disdain slips out in e-mails extricated by subpoenas.

This is the constant expectation that the amorphous sensible middle will just waltz over to the Dems with a blank check on agenda and expectations. The means of campaigning will likewise be torpid, traditional going through the motions, short on ideals, long on bland image.

This is not GOP Lite it is Political Lite. IF you are going to classically position yourself in the center this is not the way to do it. Any hint of equality between perceived "left" and "right" damns a quarter of the sensible people in the nation to the lunatic fringe? is he again going to be settling for the Undecideds, the magic 2% in the polarized America Biden is enabling that dooms any effort to overcome even modest election fraud?

Who actually are the most capable politicians in our party anyway, minus other virtues or vices? Our safest seats appear to couch the most naive presumptions.
