Our founders did not sacrifice so much in blood and treasure to enable do-gooder loonies to run around trying to force their half-baked ideas of right and wrong on the citizenry, while being paid by that citizenry to represent them in a legislative body.

There are a whole host of consensus issues, immigration reform, updating privacy protections, education reform, reining in the pharma bros of the world, truly the list is endless. We are all assured by all experts on the subject of DC that there is nothing that can be done because the country is too polarized to get commonsense legislation through. This of course is bullocks, there is plenty of common ground among the citizenry, the problem is politicians that are so busy trying to be a hero to this that the other special interest group (and yes, using the public trust and taxpayer funding for selfish reasons to burnish their own resumes). These guys need to do their jobs and stop looking for the sexiest fringe issues out there to try to attach themselves to and virtue signal over!

These "Do Gooder Loonies", as you put it, keep winning Republican primaries despite well-funded opposition. Hardly fringe. Not killing babies is not a "Do Gooder Loony" position.
