The GOP is a lost cause.
There is no other choice but to decline them.
Whatever form that takes, I don’t know. But it’s been in the works for a while. Many people are just not going to bow down to the GOP, period.
I still have a GOP registration and support Cruz, but most times in general elections I write in other than Rep.
The GOP is a lost cause.

Agree. By now that should be obvious to most. How many times do we have to get stabbed in the back before we recognize this reality? The GOP wants our money and our votes, but not our principles.
For what it’s worth, my attempt at a solution is to support Tea Party candidates and individual conservative candidates but NOT anything that is GOP. They will not get a penny of my money anymore the Republican Party is dead to me. I think I have figured out their scam. They have been taking our money and mixing it with the big donors money but we did not get to make the decisions of how to spend our money. Our money was mixed together with the big donors money then the big donors got to make the decisions of what to do with our money. We had no voice whatsoever, but of course, for years we did not know we were being played, now we know.
Everything is in flux and disarray today, we do not know what will happen and we are in great peril, so it seems that the only thing that we can do is to support a parallel party within the Republicans while keeping our money separate from the GOP. If we get enough of our candidates elected with OUR money perhaps we can takeover the Republicans or perhaps we can shed them off and start another party. It will take time. Meanwhile we have to perfect a jobs message such as Donald Trump has. This gets to the heartland of America, both Democrat voters and Republican voters as well.
We have to get more people like Trump who talk to the people in real terms and not in some boardroom stiff kind of way. Most of the Republicans talk like they are at a business meeting. Elections are not business meetings they are about reaching the hearts and minds of real people while educating them about how our country is supposed to work and how our economy is supposed to work. If you know what you are talking about you should be able to explain it to people of all income and educational levels.
We need a strong jobs message because this country has had our jobs infrastructure ruined by false double-dealing politicians in both parties. One third of our manufacturing jobs have been gone because of the traitorous trade policies of the past thirty years. If conservative candidates addressed this in a strong America first sort of way, you better believe that millions of Democrats and Independents would fly over to their side like bees to honey. The Democrat politicians have been two faced to the American people and the Republicans as well. I believe America is ready for a change. We need to make jobs the centerpiece while not abandoning threats of abortion and the gay agenda.
