Continued support (after the recent overturning) of the Thirteenth Amendment--specifically relevant portion being that which concerns involuntary servitude.
We all know they have offered huge tax breaks to the wealthiest 1%, but what do they offer the poor white trash you see at Trump rallies? They offer them an outlet to blame someone. Blacks, Jews, Mexicans, etc., etc., this is what they offer.
It's like going to a professional sporting event, you go to root for your team, and shout down the opposition. But this is something entirely new, a President who has demonized anyone who disagrees with them, and the foaming and frothing mob has completely brought in. They get a sense of community with fellow Trump supporters and they have an authoritarian who makes them feel "safe", being as most of these people live in a constant state of fear of anyone who does not look and speak exactly as they do.
And, of course, they have someone else to blame for them being poor and lacking expensive medical insurance. And that is enough for your average Trump supporter.
Correct. The Republican Party gives a certain demographic someone to blame for their problems.
A robust and growing economy, good GDP growth
Low unemployment
Lower tax rates, yet higher Federal revenue
Less onerous regulations
Better Trade Deals
More Secure Borders
Less illegals stealing American resources
Less Identity Politics
Better judicial appointees
Respect for the Constitution
Upholding the Second and First Amendments

And much more, things are just getting started.

Republicans believe that failed socialist countries shouldn’t ship their political refugees here.
Republicans believe that blacks are equal in intelligence and ability to white people and don’t need to be pandered too.
Republicans believe that people should follow police orders, not try to prove how great a social justice warrior they are.
Republicans believe that people should provide for themselves if they are physically and mentally capable.
Republicans believe the size and powers of the government should be kept to the minimum possible.
Republicans believe that free people are capable of deciding for themselves how they want to live their life and don’t need government intrusion and affirmation.
Republicans believe enemies should be fought on their turf, not ours.
Republicans believe that matters should be decided as locally as possible, preferably cities/counties first, then states, then federal. The more local, the more people have a say in the matter.
Republicans believe that families are the basic building block of society, not “the village”. Government programs should not reward families for breaking up. Fathers should be held responsible. Children are entitled to their biological mother and father.
We have to stand up to our trade partners to stop from being taken advantage of by them. This has been going on for decades under both parties. They will initially be upset that Trump is upsetting their nice, cushy deal to rape us. Eventually, they will play ball, but will make a lot of noise for a while until the realize they need us more than we need them.
I hadn't heard about an increased nuclear arms race, so can't comment.

Yes, the Russians are building all kinds of nasty new nuclear weapons to bomb us with. Makes perfect sense, since Putin and Trump are best buddies, ya know.......

That’s because it’s a bald faced lie from a bald faced liar.

What does the Republican Party in 2018 have to offer the American people?
