      I mean in theory there could be (not saying there will be) and let’s not forget that until around WWII the Republican party was considered the “progressive” one. I think it’s more about them perpetuating the idea of having principles as opposed to them actually having the potential for any. They are eternal bullshit artists after all, they can just say they have the page without showing how empty the other side is.
