Possibly good news for 2024, perhaps...
To tease out more who makes up the modern conservative electorate, the Times divided Republican and Republican-leaning voters into six categories, defined by their feelings about the former and would-be-future president as well as their policy positions:
The Moderate Establishment (14%). Highly educated, affluent, socially moderate or even liberal and often outright Never Trump.
The Traditional Conservatives (26%). Old-fashioned economic and social conservatives who oppose abortion and prefer corporate tax cuts to new tariffs. They don't love Mr. Trump, but they do support him.
The Right Wing (26%). They watch Fox News and Newsmax. They're "very conservative." They're disproportionately evangelical. They believe America is on the brink of catastrophe. And they love Mr. Trump more than any other group.
The Blue Collar Populists (12%). They're mostly Northern, socially moderate, economic populists who hold deeply conservative views on race and immigration. Not only do they back Mr. Trump, but he himself probably counted as one a decade ago.
The Libertarian Conservatives (14%). These disproportionately Western and Midwestern conservatives value small government. They're relatively socially moderate and isolationist, and they're on the lower end of Trump support compared with other groups.
The Newcomers (8%). They don't look like Republicans. They're young, diverse and moderate. But these disaffected voters like Democrats and the "woke" left even less.
The "right wing" and the "blue collar populists"—which make up a combined 37 percent—are loyal Trump supporters. The others in the coalition have more mixed or even negative views of Trump.

This ignores the fact that Repubs are so tribal that most will vote for a Repub no matter what.

Repubes asking for money is the very definition of spam.

The U.S. is pumping oil faster than ever. Republicans don’t care
GOP presidential candidates are blaming pump prices on President Joe Biden’s clean energy policies, even though the U.S. is churning out record amounts of oil.

Where is Woke? Defascist has quit saying Woke in every sentence and only one person, Nikki Haley uttered the word at their debate last week.
So what happened? Just not doing what it was supposed to do which is to disparage the Dems. Of course, it was basically misuse of the word which only exposed their own ignorance about the origin of the word.
So far Brandon has not worked, neither Woke nor Marxists nor Radical So************************ts.
What's the next word?

'Alabama lawmaker arrested on voter fraud charge' AP
"HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) — An Alabama legislator was arrested Tuesday on felony voter fraud charges accusing him of voting in a district where he did not live.
Republican Rep. David Cole of Huntsville was arrested on charges of voting in an unauthorized location, according to Madison County Jail records. The details of the charge were not immediately available in court records, but the arrest comes after accusations that Cole did not live in the district in which he was elected.
Cole, a doctor and Army veteran, was elected to the House of Representatives last year.
Voter fraud is a Class C felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. The Alabama attorney general's office is prosecuting the case against Cole, a spokeswoman confirmed."

Why is it that the loudest howling about the integrity of our voting systems comes from the peckerwood party most guilty of commiting election fraud?

Federal prosecutors are seeking prison time for former Florida State Rep. Joseph Harding. The Republican sponsor of the Parental Rights in Education bill (“Don’t Say Gay”) pleaded guilty to wire fraud and money laundering related to a COVID-19 relief scheme.
