be the core of the long-needed GOP revolt?

Would Gardner, Murkowski, Collins, Sasse, Colin Powell, Jeb Bush, and possibly Graham read the tea leaves to see that the Trump Dynasty will end badly? Will they unite to force accountability to save the party and conservative movement?

The six senators on the list could join forces with the Senate Democrats to force McConnell to allow hearings in the Senate and bring constitutional accountability to the President. The man is now a named conspirator in a felony...and the Justice Department has enough evidence to press charges, but for the fact that he IS President.

If the Republican Party is to survive, it must wrest control from it's radical fringe. There are still moderates out there. If they don't act, there is a real possibility that the GOP will lose all branches and wander the desert for a generation. The BLUE WAVE was a pretty good signal that without election process intervention, Republicans can not hold on. Statewide losses in Montana, Kansas, Nevada, and Arizona coupled with close calls in Florida, Georgia, Texas and Mississippi show erosion in the "Red Wall".

I can see the wheels coming off rapidly as the king-makers in the party see no future in red hats, lies, bigotry, and economic malpractice.
