I honestly believe someone could run as a Republican on the whole "it was better back then" train utilizing most of the Republican official platforms from the 1960-1970s. It's pretty damned close to the basics the Dems have been talking about and not accomplishing because of obstructionism.
It's clear with modern Rs you don't even need to explain anything, just say you're going back to the good old days when the US was powerful, etc. and hijack the current bullshit machine. Then push through the actual platform of the time, with receipts. Force them to face the fact their party has been hijacked.
