Who’s we? Some journalists? This is a category mistake. We get paid to comment on things as we see them, openly and honestly — not to win elections. That’s a different job entirely.
There is room for different viewpoints, as well as criticism of bad strategies. I think taking a hostile, adversarial line towards people who try to build bridges across different parts of the coalition - going after them specifically for doing so - is self-defeating.

The AmGreatness people are very much an example of self-defeating tent-narrowers, not tent-builders. I'm an institutionalist, not a Donatist; I'm trying to work within the GOP to get past current flawed leaders the same reasons as working within the Church.
