No, this description doesn't bear any relation to what I'm actually hearing from actual Republicans and conservatives.
Ugly and angry? As I'm listening to conservatives these days they come across as kidding themselves about everything being hopeful because they seem to think the country is falling in line behind their offerings. If anything they seem way too positive, not angry and ugly.
They seem out of touch and positive. This article itself ends up sounding ugly and angry, but not capturing what Republicans are actually offering.
