How? Every pol runs his own race and raises his own money. Primaries are open to any candidate who wants to run as a Republican. That’s a feature, not a bug. A strong party system would have strangled Trump’s presidential bid in the cradle.

“A strong party system would have strangled Trump’s presidential bid in the cradle.”

As I recall, they tried. Didn’t work. They sold out to Hilliary and it backfired.

Did you never hear about national parties giving money to candidates of the same party? Yeah, they raise a lot of their own money, but a tremendous amount is doled out by the national parties...to those who toe the line. Regrettably, Sasse’s seat is important, so he cannot be cut off right now...but he should have to pay a price for this later. When you join a party, that has to mean something in terms of loyalty - or at least shutting the FU 3 weeks before an election.
