Long-term? Cheney.
Short-term, it's a tie...which makes sense, since the GOP is currently fractured.
The GOP would be wise to really start supporting strong moderate conservatives. They'd win the MAGA vote by default, would win the traditional republican vote, would win the other segments (Cuban, Evangelical, etc), and would win over some independents and moderates, too.
The Biden/Harris/Bernie/AOC/left/far-left's out there would have a HELL of a time competing against a strong moderate conservative. The problem is the primaries are set up to let the wackos bubble up to the top and get all the attention.
Dude, you need to get out of the Beltway.
Well I am moving to Minnesota this year!

The problem is we are focusing on personality, not policy.
With personalities like this, it is a problem!
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

At present these personalities outweigh any chance of a rational discussion of policy.

McConnell calls MTG a cancer on the GOP.

A Republic congressman from IL, who has spoken against President Trump for quite a long time has a website. Interesting video on there.
I dont know his district but I am sure the President Trump followers will try and vote him out during the primary.

@loki I was referring to Trump when I said the de facto party leader.
He apparently offered her support. As he has frequently over the last year. Contrast that with Cheney...

Sure. But, however naively, they tend to think that Antifa are just young people who are against fascism and tend to disassociate the group from any violence.

But here’s some good news. Cheney keeps her leadership post, after a vote of 145-61 in the GOP conference.
It was a secret ballot.
