Like Youngkin and Desantis don't tout Trump's policy line down to the period at the end of a sentence, and it isn't want every single Republican winning their races now are doing as well. They are ALL MAGA Republicans, every fucking one of them. They are WINNING....because that is what resonates with people. Not some fake soft lying RINO like a Romney.
Tell me all the ne young hot shot RINO's who are up and comers Druff and are about to take the government by storm. ZERO. TYou want Mitch fucking McConnel's in position of power?
The Dems said the same thing you just did about "hey let's prop up MAGA because they will never win..bad candidates!". They are ALL winning. And will continue to do so with the new MAGA wave of republicans coming into the fold now.
I don't care if a candidate privately is more right wing than he lets on. I just care what he says and does.
DeSantis is a good example.
While MAGA types are trying to outlaw abortion completely in their states (big political mistake), DeSantis pushed for a 15 week limit, which is largely popular with independents and swing voters. That's smart politics.
Dumb politics is obsessing over outlawing abortion and motivating women to find out and vote D.
I don't want RINOs. I want conservatives who can read the pulse of the people, and tailor their message to that. You don't want to create your own vulnerabities.
The MAGA candidates might win only due to Democrats being so awful and out of touch. It's not because middle of the road voters want them. I guarantee there's a ton of people in Pennsylvania who don't like Dr. Oz, but will reluctantly vote for him because Fetterman's brain is broken. But that doesn't speak to the quality of Oz as a candidate.
Republicans do best when they outright reject dumb shit from Democrats, focus upon that, and be careful not to become extreme themselves. See 1994.
