“What is the Republican Party’s guiding principle? Americans need to know what it is before we can be expected to vote Republican”
Constitutional matters MATTER.
The bedrock principles of the Founders still obtain.
If one is ignorant of these, then there is no discussion starting point.
Going from there must account for cultural/societal changes while supporting the original Founding.
There is a problem with those who have zero overview of anything. Some have a MANTRA that simply pounds away with their personal favorite sentence or two of anger and protest and resignation to the awful fate brought about by others who do the same - albeit with their OWN Mantras.
You have to take your pick because there are 3: libertarian (sola constitutionola), Christian “right” (Bible and Constitution), and pro-business/fiscal soundness/ AKA country club style. These do cross over, mix and mingle; but those are the factions that keep (R)s from unifying around winning.
Americans need to know what it is before we can be expected to vote Republican.
Trump he’s the only help we have if not Mao books will be sent to you after the umm election.
What is the Republican Party’s guiding principle?
To suck just a little less than the Democrats.
It is what it has always has been..
Lie to your face to get elected, then do the opposite of what we said we would do.
GOP is anti MAGA pro globalist country clubbers. The “leadership” hates the working class.
The establishment GOP’s guiding principle is the same as the democrats, destroy the country for personal gain.
How are the Democrats not getting what they want anyway with the Republican party?
If-If Trump were to win in 24 which would be a miracle, he could conceivable start a new political party and have four years to birth it and in the process kill of the GOP.
Right now I know Goldwater voters who are not planning on voting next November if Trump or DeSantis are not the nominees and they flat out state, to hell with voting for the Republicans in the congressional races, they are liars and liberal crooks, we’ve been betrayed one too many times, not again.

- Democrats want power.
- Republicans want money.
This creates the two wings of the Uniparty apparatus.
- Donors to democrats do so in order to support an ideological agenda based around social control; you are a prole.
- Donors to republicans do so in order to support financial control; you are a serf.
This is the main distinction between the two corporations that align with mutually beneficial non-compete clauses.
As long as democrats allow republicans to operate systems toward their objective, the assembly of wealth, there is no opposition to the democrat agenda of social control. This is the baseline of the political frustration noted by almost all “republican” voters. The GOP politicians who are created by the billionaire donors are not acting on a priority to defend, preserve or support individual liberty. The GOP politicians prioritize what their benefactors tell them to prioritize, the assembly of wealth and financial control.
It is accurate that DC republicans and democrats are aligned in foreign policy.
Democrats want interventionist policy to create larger power centers for globalization and dominance in social systems.
However, the core of the republican opposition to Donald Trump is not directly related to foreign policy, their opposition is related to how economic control is diminished under the Trump America-First program, and as an extension this diminishes interventionist foreign policy spending.
Democrats do not like the inability to influence global affairs because they want social controls.
Republicans do not like the inability to influence global affairs as a tool to protect their financial structures.
- Democrats want power.
- Republicans want money.

A little wishy. A little washy.
This attitude is why we are where we are.
Screw the GOP, I’m done.
not attitude, fact. if 80% of the new party gets what was Republican votes and Dems, being Dems, will vote for there candidates no mater what, 100% is more than 80%, it’s a loss.
except for 1 or 2 so called independents, there are no others in congress, it’s either a D or and R
I’m struggling to even vote for state republicans after that stunt they participated in against Paxton here in Texas.
I must disagree the GOP stands for sucking Democrat donkey dick & that is about all!
You started with “if”.
I do not accept your assumptions.
no problem, I don’t agree with you either. It’s good to have differing opinions instead of operating under a hive mind like the Democrats.
I would jump to a viable, conservative 3rd party in a heartbeat if I believed it had a chance.
We are getting there.
The Republicans will continue as they have as more people realize
they are not being represented.
Problem is the system, it favors the incumbent. A regular person, as it was intended, just can’t run
The GOP used to stand strongly for reducing the size of government, now it’s a joke.
