I remember during the 2016 Republican primary I went to dinner with about 8 work colleagues (unfortunately all Republican due to my job)....they were all dogging Trump and hated him, everything out of their mouths was despise for Trump....then it became quiet and one of them said he was better than Hillary and Obama though, and they all agreed....to your point that it’s really all about the R so I don’t know why elected Republicans just won’t let him go, their voters aren’t going anywhere
