14. They need to suck it up

Just take this loss and hope the party can recover. Trying to replace him now would probably do even more damage to their party, if that is possible. Meanwhile, republicans control the majority of governorships, state legislatures, the house, and the senate. They should forget about Trump and try to salvage what they can of the down ticket races (hopefully they won't be successful at that!).
