A Brief Quiz

Here's a question that I've had for a few weeks now, and I would really like an answer, because honestly, I don't know. I will, however, admit to just a smidgen of schandenfreude in asking, but in all seriousness, if anyone out there can enlighten me, I'd very much appreciate it.

Who is the real leader of the Republican Party today?

Anyone? Anyone...? Bueller?
