Axios: “Republicans are losing power where power matters most at the national level: in politics, media, technology and the workplace. Republicans often felt mistreated when they had real power in the form of the presidency and Senate. Watch Fox News or listen to Ben Shapiro, and you will see and hear how this new isolation will feed Republican worries and grievances in the months ahead.”
“Tucker Carlson warned on Fox: ‘Tens of millions of Americans have no chance – they’re about to be crushed by the ascendant left.’ Democrats will soon control the White House, Senate and House. They already dominate most mainstream newsrooms, own Big Tech companies, and often band together inside corporations to force politically motivated decisions. Republicans will be left with Mitch McConnell as party leader of a 50-50 Senate, prime time on Fox News and The Wall Street Journal editorial page. Conservatives long ago lost so many key institutions that define the national conversation, including culture, media and higher education. But since 1980, the party had political power and policy-making capability. Now, President Trump has cost Republicans those tools, and the party will have to rebuild around new people and ideas.”
