He has a point. As do you. At the same time, if no amount of misconduct would prevent you from voting for the GOP, then expect the amount to increase over time. That's just basic logic. People respond to incentives.
agreed, so the solution is in the primaries. a lot of people just wait for the main election, and frankly by that time it's too late to make any sort of change.
if you don't like what your Republican representative is doing, do everything you can to primary them.
Defeat them in the primary. If that doesn't work or is impractical, vote against them in the general election, depending on the situation. If GOP has 260 seats, you can take the risk. If it's a 1-seat majority, then you might not.
I think it's a bad idea that people blindly vote for GOP. In solid-red districts, all it takes is one election loss to be rid of the likes of Eyepatch McCain. I think it's worth it to suffer 2 years of a Democrat rather than 30 years of Eyepatch.

is it?
the way things have gone, eye-patch McCain would be replaced by another definitely-not-McCain but with rainbow flags.
Well, how many rainbow flag Republicans have been elected? Not that many, right? What makes you think a new one would be in a solid red district?
