"Jonah’s flat-out wrong here with respect to the GOP - the party has no use for conservatives, outside of demanding “tribute” in the way of votes and donations.

I agree, for conservatives, the GOP is a ruined brand.

Time for a new party.

Sounds like a wet dream for the democRAT party. Infiltrate and demoralize the Republican party...check... "New" party for conservatives only...check... We will be in power for at least another decade while the "new" ideologically pure party is building....check... pass whatever we want during that decade....check... Appoint "our" federal judges for another decade...check.

I agree this last election was a setback but I agree that framing the message properly is the biggest problem "we" have. Our message needs to convince the "low information voter" that what we are offering is better in the long run than what the democRATs are offering and I believe with all my heart that it starts with a takeover of established mainstream media sources. You can have a perfectly crafted message but in todays media, if they don't want the "low information voters" to hear that message....it won't be heard. ESPECIALLY if it is an effective message. They will create a "crisis" to give cover as to why the perfectly crafted message wasn't "covered"
