This is so true. Republicans, at least in the past 75 years have had to keep their voters distracted because they have no policies to improve the lives of ordinary people. They are only concerned with keeping taxes low to make the rich more prosperous. Unfortunately today's GOP has taken this to new extremes with various phony crises such as CRT, gay "groomers", Antifa, the border, etc.

Because they know that trafficking in people's fears gets them both more attention and more votes than wonky policy statements -- less informed but more passionate voters. When was the last time that the GOP told us, beyond generalities, what they are for instead of what they are against?
