And yet the party completely dominates most state legislatures and governorships, both chambers in Congress, the current Supreme Court and even this president says “in the 1980s, I would be considered a moderate Republican.” If this is a slow death, it's awfully slow.
Their base audience and voting block are the older people of the world, the baby boomers will outnumber the Millennial Generation for a while yet. The truth is most young people only vote in major election years, that's why so much crappy legislation happens 2 years after a Presidential run, the base will keep eating up the bs. That's also how they stay so heavily in power at the local level.
