The overwhelming majority are genuine Republicans.

This comment is just begging for a link to the "no true Scotsman" wiki page, but I'll resist. :)

The overwhelming majority of Republican representatives (and voters) unite to vote for common causes, even when they compromise. We see this in most modern elections; it is very rare for a party to lose the majority of its base in a vote; ergo the majority is the genuine version of the party, not some supposed pure minority strain.

Never heard of that, so I went there. Perfect description and explanation.
