Republicans thought they could control him.
How many Republicans have become Trumpers who did not really support him in 2016.
Case in point.
Elise Stefanik R NY 21 she was a reasonable moderate and was lukewarm in her Trump support in 16.
She has sold her soul to Trump in exchange for his support.

If they don't stand up to Trump now, they never will.
I fear for our country.
