IMO the only way to improve the current situation is to get more Republicans

to take a public stand against the Trumpster Fire: once there's enough movement, there will be a sudden collapse of public tolerance for the Orangetan

And the only way to get more Republicans to take such a public stand is to start identifying them closely with Trump

"The problem isn't just Trump: it's the whole Republicant party"

We don't need to shift them all: we just need to put a healthy Fear-of-What's-Ahead in a good chunk of them, because they'll start visibly backing away from him

Get more people connecting trump to the virus he claimed he had under control. Stop using the scientific name. republican’ts deny science, why use a scientific name for a virus trump should be associated with?

But privately I suspect they're looking at replacing him knowing he's lost the upcoming election from this. They know people are running from trump and them now , and an election disaster is coming if they don't. Some polls are being manipulated for him so don't believe them. trump talking daily publicly is a gift to the Democrats and Joe Biden. Americans are believing him less and less now, and know they can't trust him on anything he says or claims. trumps a serial liar , and keeps proving it daily .
