If the Republican Party has become merely a weak copy of the Democrat Party, what the heck does it matter?

Abortion and homosexuality are not federal issues. The Founders would have an hysterical laughing fit if you told them that in the 21st century, the federal government got involved in bedroom politics.

Then they'd weep at the thought of the loss of the Republic.

Any proposed Constitutional Amendment ratified by the states is a federal issue.

Sorry. Abortions aren't committed in bedrooms, and the radical homosexual agenda is being forwarded in the public square and the public schools, not in a closet.

They'd weep that people like you could have so lost sight of righteousness and of the fact that God considers certain things abominable.

Then why did the SCOTUS take away tye states' right to legislate on these issues?

"Abortion ... [is] not federal issues."
It ought not be, but thanks to Roe and Doe, it is. Rudy's track record of appointing liberals makes him a non-starter for social conservatives.
