I think maybe the rethugs are waiting and hoping that TFG will go so bat shit crazy

That even his most ardent followers will start abandoning him. They are stuck in the sinking ship and hoping for a miracle that would allow them to drop him. But it’s not going to happen, at this point they are stuck with him while the country watches him unravel.

1. They had that moment with the insurrection. They should have voted for impeachment and conviction.

They had that moment to pivot and become REAL patriots but they gave into fear.

they should have hammered TFG over it.

2. If Pence had used the 25th Amendment on Trump,

and there was support for doing that, it would have all been over. Trump should have been put in cuffs and led off to jail on the night of January 6. That might have been our only opportunity to get rid of him, and Pence blew it. I've had an uneasy feeling since then that it's too late to do anything to him now. Unless they're able to get Trump on criminal charges, he'll live to fight another day and bring on another insurrection that might be successful next time.

6. Yep

the only thing that will save them now is if he dies of natural causes.

And even then..... depends who takes up his mantle.

3. They've given up on that and now rely on election cheating and rigging to win.

They are changing the laws so state legislatures can throw out Democratic winners and replace them with Republicans.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

5. Right. And no one seems to know how we can stop them.

Nothing is more important right now.

4. TFG is bat shit crazy already.

[Arkansas Granny]

7. Republicans know this, but keeping the support of his bat shit crazy cult is more important

to Congressional Republicans than saving our democracy.

[Kablooie]

9. Saving democracy means they lose their jobs.

Democracy is a danger to,them now.

8. They're hoping TFG croaks.
