In the 90s boomers weren't dying off in large amounts, conservative bastions weren't in overwhelming support of abortion rights when left to the peoples' vote, and Texas of all places wasn't turning purple in state-wide elections. Things have absolutely changed from a population standpoint and gop leaders have shown that they're terrified of the millenial+Z vote, which trends significantly more liberal (and the millenial vote has not shifted conservative with age, as older generations did), now being larger than the boomer vote.

Things are absolutely changing if you pay attention to the data. That being said, it's still something that only changes over the course of generations, and the gop's fraternization with Christian nationalists has created a monster that they're now losing control of. We're at a phase where things will either start to get better because of right wing ideology losing the numbers game, or right wingers lashing out at their loss of control will lead to them taking over via less democratic means (their capture of the SCOTUS is a more tame example of what they might try).
