They'll kill 'em all and let god sort them out. You see, the only thing Republican politicians hate more than Democrats is their own constituents. They hate being beholden to them for their votes, and would love to create a society where they remain in power, and can kill all the insects and animals they used to put them there. The massive cuts to Federal spending in the latest legislation, which will go a long way to starting the process of killing off people in the Red districts, should be proof enough of that.
Don't be deluded into thinking that Representatives and Senators in any way identify or have any sympathy for the people who constitute their base. They think they're suckers and losers, and they're not wrong.
