yes, plenty of the faithful will remain loyal, committed republicans no matter how bad the shitshow becomes, and keep voting republicans even after impeachment.

but they'll still lose a lot of support, just as everyone basically knew republicans were never going to win in 2008. shrub was just too damaging to their brand.

assassination, on the other hand, is a win-win for republican leaders (i'm certainly not advocating that for many reasons).
