 One way to jump-start this reorientation today would be to make a dramatic move to distance the party from Trump. A poll on Jan. 6, the day pro-Trump insurgents stormed the Capitol, found that 43 percent of Republicans opposed the attack. Just two days later, as more details emerged, another poll found 71 percent of Republicans opposing the storming, and 58 percent strongly opposing it. At least half of Republicans, in other words, know that something is deeply wrong with their party.

This is where Republican leaders come in. If a significant section of the Republican Party comes out strongly against extremism, makes a case for preventing Trump from holding office again and simply tells the truth about the election, many voters will pay attention. Many who are drifting away from the party might be reassured enough to come back, and ready to hear the Republican Party’s reset around positive proposals for rebuilding the working class and creating an economy that works for everyone.

　レーガンも最初は生活保護バッシングに名を借りた人種差別的な政策で多少の支持は得たが、結局減税を訴えることで広く支持をえるようになった。

　共和党のなかでも、議事堂襲撃について反対するものは多いんだから、機会の平等,社会的流動性、自由経済での雇用などを訴えて、トランプから距離をおいて共和党を立て直すべきだ、と。
