They must go "generic." ALL Republican candidates, incumbent or otherwise, MUST be framed as Trump acolytes, and therefore unacceptable as people who believe in democratic rule. All of them. Don't pay attention to candidates' individual platforms if they vary from Trump's demands, because all of them will lie to make themselves more attractive. The GOP is now a toxic political force. It is NOT part of a democratic process. The GOP in its present form is not compatible with the US Constitution. This can be easily illustrated by quizzing GOP candidates if they believe in the viability and usefulness of the Constitution, and asking them how Trump practices his loyalty to the Constitution. We would then witness how they lie to protect Trump, and therein lies the answer. Political discussions are an essential part of preserving our Constitutional freedoms, but disloyal and seditious parties need not apply.

If the Dems do NOT go generic, then the GOP will cheat and lie to win. The entire GOP must be excised from elections until they can legitimately claim loyalty to the Constitution and renounce Trump. It's that simple. Anything else is an exercise in self-deception.
