"The temptation on our side is always going to be that all we have to do is say we're not California," said Thiel, invoking the Golden State's increasing embrace of far-left prerogatives. "It's so easy, so ridiculous to denounce, but … should we maybe have more of a positive agenda?"
Thiel argued that although the national headwinds favored Republicans this cycle and potentially in 2024, the party had to offer a positive vision and program to succeed long term and be credible.
