I’m going to summarize the GOP in a few sentences or paragraphs and then let loose what may.
This is an overview of impressions and facts.
For the previous 8 years:
Elections were won; get the fuck over it.
Republicans won the House and the Senate. And then they let these institutions languish.
They had power and then refused to, first, coalesce it and then, second, utilize it.
My President exelled in some areas and not in others; communication would not be GW’s strong point.
In the meantime GOP concerns exploded into the mainstream.
