The Changing Landscape of the Republican Party
The Republican Party has undergone significant changes, with the focus shifting away from core values and towards hate and racism for voter mobilization. The lack of clear values has made it difficult for the party to establish a cohesive identity, and issues such as limited government and fiscal responsibility have been overshadowed. The rise of figures like DeSantis in Florida, who use divisive rhetoric, highlights the shift towards appealing to anger and racism to gain support. However, the lack of a strong foundation and clear values poses a challenge for the party's future.
