No. You are thinking the GOP is a single group of people. It's a combination of 3 groups that should be at war with themselves

you have:
the big business guys (the get rid of the EPA / IRS ... grouping)
the big defense guys (strong military beyond all else)
the morality players (the transgender issue would be in their wheelhouse)
=====
When all 3 are united, it's a pretty solid party structure; even as the sum of the parts is contradictory.
* Strong military is mostly at odds with religious teachings of peace...
* Low taxes limits the ability to pay for a large-scale military...
* Religious teachings against greed conflict with pure capitalism and 'exploiting' the workforce.
===
The fundamental aspect of the party is the private sector should be the driver of societal progress. The only segment that truly conflicts with that is the morality groups, but you take votes how you can get them.
