It is funny (not) just how poorly the Republicans run the country

They spend a massive amount of time and government resources to repeal Obamacare. The reason, just to make sure more Americans do not have any health care. The GOP always is willing to cut some rich corporation or individual tax payments but the GOP loves to increase the middle class tax burden. The GOP is against cutting student loan programs or prosecuting fraud in banking. The GOP talks a good talk but never produces for the middle class a damn thing.

I'd vote for a republican if they ran on the 1956 party platform if they promised not to ever run again should they fail to accomplish any significant gains on any one of the goals or worked in opposition and could provide a tactical plan that was reasonably coherent and possible to fulfill those stated goals.
