Ryan and McTurtle don't want Trump in the Oval Office. They want Pence. I'm not saying that the national Republican leadership is this Machiavellian, but maybe they are shutting up in order to give Trump enough rope to hang himself with, so that an impeachment and removal from office becomes something even Republicans will initiate and go along with.

"Sadly, and with a heavy heart," of course.
