Republicans cannot win back voters by telling them they failed to show up when they actually showed up to send a message. That is the most important part of Vance’s analysis. If turnout were the main problem, the answer would be better organization. If people who supported us voted against us, the answer requires earning back their confidence. My read is that the concerns he identifies share a common question: Does Washington understand what American families need? Voters want security abroad, a clear purpose for American commitments and financial relief at home. Republicans should take that message seriously without turning this into a personal blame game. President Trump still has two years to deliver, and the party needs a disciplined agenda that connects every major decision to Americans’ safety and standard of living.
