The recently passed Respect for Marriage Act is proof that the Republican Party is changing. Look for a nationwide codification of Roe v. Wade just after the new Congress is sworn and seated.
On the basis of a whopping 12 legislators who are retiring, personally invested, or running in purple districts? There's been more change in the dem party on this one than the republican party - which has defined itself exclusively through the rejection of whatever changes happen in the dem party.
Sure, the republicans are changing, but they're not becoming more progressive...on anything. It's a free fall to full on christian fascism at present. It'd be nice if they gave a shit about things like fiscal responsibility or american eminance - hell..then they wouldn't even need to be judged by whether or not they were less garbage today than they were yesterday - to their shame either way.
On the broader point...OFC the republican party doesn't give a fuck about some christ. Christofascists are just a tool for anti-majoritarian control of a captured state apparatus. Ask them, they'll tell you, they got used up like a garden hoe and tossed when they couldn't cut weeds anymore - same fate as any other tool. -and by god they'll vote for the same guys again!
