Tillis: ‘The American Electorate Is Very Forgiving’ — Republicans Should Just Be Straight to Get Votes Back

EXCERPT:

DOUTHAT: "So you think the Republican Party’s gonna have a rough midterm?"
TILLIS: "Yeah, we were going to historically, I think we’re going to have more. And we can — we can remove some of those just by being straight with the American people. Look, the American electorate is very forgiving. If you — if you apologize for a misstep, explain what you’re going to do differently, you get votes back. But if you double down on something that’s clearly not resonating with the voters, then you’re going to get what you get."
