The Republicans and many conservatives are anxiously awaiting for the 2022 midterm elections to take place. With the polls predicting that the GOP will gain heavy ground, conservatives see the upcoming election as a chance for the Republicans to correct the disasters created by the Biden administration. But while both experts and even the Democrats are preparing for a wave of red, members within the Republican party present a threat to conservative values. 

Before Joe Biden took a step in the White House, the Republicans and Trump administration controlled much of D.C. But even with the backing of the GOP, former President Donald Trump came under intense scrutiny from key Republicans like Lindsey Graham, Richard Burr, and former politician Trey Gowdy.
