GOP had sweeping victories in last two midterms
US midterms trend that way historically for close to the past hundred years, the incumbent president's party loses seats.
Therefore the GOP ain't dead as implied in the OP.
It still has a mainstream following.
On my end it's stuff like New Haven Firefighters case, or the e-harmony lawsuit or #blm behavior that makes me self-aware and vote Republican.
I actually support abortion, want to close tax loopholes for the rich.
