If you think about conservative ideas, conservative principles, the fact that Donald Trump goes back at George W. Bush over weapons of mass destruction or gets into fights with the pope, and there's no outreach in terms of growth of the party. I think lots of people fear for the future of the party.

The teachers' unions that block school reform have done serious damage to the union brand. The public no longer views unions as their friend, much less their champion.
