Has he promised each Republican senator a high place in his dictatorship or

just some of them and the rest he's threatened to execute in LaFayette Square?

It might be, but really they all know they can be easily primaries with just one choice insult from Donald fraud. He's purged "moderates" from the party, what's left of the republican primary voter pool are 90+% trumpies.

If Donald fraud tells them to vote for a primary opponent, they'll figure their career is over.

The Republican Party is a no longer a political party, not even a political party that commits crimes. it's a criminal organization that engages in politics.

And in criminal organizations, everyone just knows to line up behind the guy at the top.

hold he has on them, of course Putin probably helped him dig up the dirt. The thing is if they took Russian money, or other bribes, even if they didn't know it was from Russia, they could be facing crimes that could put them in jail. Of course some of them are probably just sickos like trump who really don't care about anyone but themselves so they will do anything to hold on to the power they have now.
