A fact both parties need to be reminded of, for different reasons: band-aids are best ripped off
QUICKLY.
Republicans can either sl-o-w-l-y tug at the crazy right-wing extremism---Trump variety---that has smothered their party or RIP it off by severing ties with not just Trump, but also Greene and Boebert and Gaetz and Jordan and--- the list goes on. The first method insures the slow agonizing death of the "Grand Old Party". The latter method requires courage and resolve, but would allow healing to begin.
Democrats have rightly spent a couple of weeks exploring the possibilities of a bipartisan path to doing what needs to be done to deal with both the viral and economic emergencies. Republicans are still whistling and looking the other way while shielding the traitors in their midst. The time to use the power voters have given them is here. RIP the band-aid off.
