I really think the GOP has simply given up on winning the White House. They don't need to. They can obstruct quite nicely from where they've gerrymandered themselves. They can keep passing pointless laws (that will never be signed by the President) that will be red meat to the base that goes out every election to vote for them.
These guys will suck their cushy legislative job for all it's worth then bail on the constituents they never did a fucking thing for to go work on K Street. Everybody wins! No, wait...
They made a wise choice when they went after state government and governorships. It allows them to force legislation at the state level and gerrymander themselves the House.
They are setting themselves up to govern as a minority party
