The fringe elements on both ends do not define non Rhinos.

I had this exchange with Lidane a few days ago:

That’s because the part of the right that fell over the ledge are the folks that are in the media and who make up the party base that is most active in the primaries. They’re the ones setting the tone for the discussion, and most of the politicians on the right are either in agreement or are too scared to alienate these people out of fear for their jobs.

So what you’re saying is that the problematic republicans are the ones in the media, the ones that vote, the agenda setters, and the politicians. Add to that, the ones who go demonstrate. Frankly, those are exactly all the people that comprise a political party.
