I agree but we need this douche bag to win.

Unfortunately yes. But this is a real attrition thing. Even people that start out pretty strong conservatives start being ‘pulled to the center’ by the magnetic appeal of dollars and the scarcely less important appeal to their egos to be ‘respected’ by the ‘important people’. For every Louis Gomert who just despises the establishment and spits in their eye at every opportunity their are 2/3 Steve Scalises’s who desperately want to ‘grow’.
