Here is the problem: the base believes things that aren't true
There's no solution to that problem if you aren't willing to tell voters "I am right and you are wrong." The GOP, aside from Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, and a few others, refuses to do that, because there's always someone coming up behind them in a primary willing to lie to the voters and say "You are right." You view the politicians in DC as being out of touch with the base, while I view the base as being out of touch with reality. A good political leader IMO is someone who will tell the voters the truth even if it doesn't help them get re-elected. Sadly there are only a handful of those left in the GOP.
