Maybe there will be again someday, but it aint now, and theres NO guarantee, nor even convincinv evidence that its likely.

But shes in a position where shes lost the trump base either way, so she might as well position herself for something else hopeful, because the Qrump folk are set on punishing her, and even a straight Uturn to support him/them wouldnt save her from that.

When youve got no port in a storm, you might as well look for an fabled safe haven that there's no evidence for, because you dont have anything left to lose.
