There is 91+% of Trump right now in the GOP. That means there's 9% that are old school GOP.
You want to purge the RINO's? You build a new party and pull that 91% to it. The remaining 9% will realize the GOP is dead and will HAVE to move. The ones that don't, shouldn't be in the party anyway as they're RINO's.
You kill two birds with one stone. You rebrand to show that this isn't the 80 year old white man movement anymore. We play by new rules now. We don't stick to dead tradition. By doing that, you force the RINO's away where they die on the vine. You're sending a message to EVERYONE that we're not going to go with the program anymore. We define the party. Not these Bush era faggots.
You hit it exactly right. Maybe the patriot party doesn't even run a presidential candidate at first. All the funding goes to house seats. They would caucus with the GOP anyway and form as big of a block as always on key issues. The rub is, you slowly start to turn a majority of republican house seats into Patriot party seats over time by primarying rhinos and ineffective gop house members. This will put the fear of the base into the GOP. They either play ball, or get replaced. It isnt a zero sum game. People forget, we have had many parties in this country before. Only in the last century or so have we solidified into what we think of as the hard two-party government as it exists now.
