Actually the Republican party you supported committed suicide.

It decided it could rely on what HC called "the deplorables" even if it constantly sold them out.

It promised balanced budgets. It did not deliver.

It promised action on abortion. It did not deliver.

It promised to protect American jobs. It did not deliver.

The electorate rebelled and elected Tea Party candidates, and it boxed them in.

It then ran the Remarkable Plastic Man, Romney, and he talked himself into a loss.

I have zero sympathy for the old elitist Republican Party, which in all but name was interchangeable with the current elitist Democratic Party.
