  1. The official RNC position is that the Trump-Trash who sought to achieve insurrection via sedition are now to be seen as martyrs and heroes. Republicans want to decouple the violence from the orchestraitors of it. The GOP’s official party position is in line with Putin's: the orchestraitors of insurrection are above accountability entirely.

  2. In my understanding, the Republican Party as a physical entity is who it is at the time. It is a political party that fields candidates who are or are not elected. They who self-identify as Republicans bear the mantle of that era's Republican Party. It is not an amorphous Universal Absolute of bygone halcyon days: it changes day to day, just as today's Northern/Yankee/liberal/civil-rights-inclusion/anti-corporatist Democratic Party is not the Southern/states-rights/conservative Democratic Party of Lincoln's day. The entire identity changed over time. Today's Republican Party is not the party of Reagan, of Dole, nor of Gingrich, nor of Ike and SURE as hell not of the Great Emancipator. Today's GOP is the Party of Trump. Indivorcably and uncontestedly. The cult-god and paramilitary army-general that stands as its sole standardbearer owns it in a fiery grip, and by FAR, the at-home self-identified Republican base is his cult. They zealously identified with Trump's call to excommunicate and defenstrate as "Establishment" the lions of the party in Congress and its intellectual heavyweights. Any and all who would not bow to Trump were "RINO"ized, de-legitimized solely by virtue of not bowing to Trump and Trumpism. That base primaries and removes any and all who dare stand against Trump and Trumpism, and violent intimidation is a polled and accepted vehicle for obtaining political ends. So both the wonks & the body politic at large have become unified in lockstep adherence to Trump allegiance. Trump is today's Republicanism. Trump is today's conservatism. For those definitions and identities to alter, the voting base and the elected–– the represented and the representatives must be other than Trumpist Cultservatives in order for either Republicanism or conservatism to possibly maintain an identity severed from that cancer.
