There's no way the country can be turned around if conservatives and RINOs remain in the same party, because when push comes to shove, RINOs' whole political identity centers around being able to "work with" Democrats.

Today's political environment is an accommodation between Marxism and a watered down nationalism represented by the Democrats and Republicans respectively. The entire edifice must be brought down.
