The problem is the GOP party. They are not the solution and working from the inside will not change the party. For twenty years I fought to bring grass roots control to the party only to have conservative values and candidates kicked to the curb. Well this last convention I finally learned that the GOP will not change.
I switched my affiliation to the Constitution party. Maybe my next 20 years of effort will create a party that is run by the grass roots.
If conservatism is to get anywhere, we need a President Trump and we need Republican control of both House and Senate.
I realize that conservatism still might not progress. Trump might not be that conservative, or the House and Senate might not be that conservative. But a Democratic House, Senate, or President will be a HUGE obstacle to conservatism - that is certain. And let’s not forget that the Supreme Court is in play also.
Despite the naysayers, there is as big a difference in the two parties as there is between Trump and Clinton. This is a time for party unity.
If the Republican Party can’t change & switch to honest & real Constitutional values,then maybe the Constitution Party is the way to go. I just don’t see a majority of dimwit voters voting for that particular party just because it’s change in status quo.
