Why people work together is because they have a shared framework of principles and values.
That is obviously not the case anymore wrt Republicans and Conservatives.
And the customer is always right.
It is not my fault that you don't offer what I need.
So I vote with my feet.
Rather than being pissed for losing, maybe you should figure out how to win.

Indeed.
Additionally the R Fan Club simply refuses to accept that the
GOP is not and never was a Party of Conservative Principle.
Not for a day, as two matters resonate loud and clear:
* The GOP was politically ascendant from Lincoln till Hoover
in 1932, some 75 years; controlling the WH, Congress and
most critically, appointments to SCOTUS. It was there that
strong centralized government was enshrined as our reigning
political structure and States Rights abandoned.
* The GOP began around 1850 as the errand boy for the Northern
Mercantile Class, later the Industrial Class and now our Corporate Class.
All through their ascendancy they were militant protectionists.
At the Turn of the century, Moron McKinley insisted that Free Trade was
an insidious disease that must be eradicated as it would destroy our
"infant industries" like U.S Steel and Standard Oil, I suppose.
During their ascendancy the GOP enacted more than 100 Duties,
Excises and Tariffs on imports particularly from Britain and Germany!
There are other issues but these two suffice to correctly label the GOP
for what it has always been; a gaggle of progressive frauds and hustlers.
