11. Trump is not a Republican, that's the thing.

Actual Republicans believe in the values that this guy does, not a "leader" who defies laws. The fact that so many so-called Republicans ignored the solid evidence presented during the impeachment hearings bears that out. I cannot imagine how they're going to go back to what they were before Trump turned their party into a cult of Trump - the craziness has spread across the country and I can't see them putting the genie back into the bottle - and anyone running as a Republican now has to be facing an uncertain future at best.
