While they've riled up their base and created fears about Democrats’ policies, that does not credibly or, in the least, explain their flagrant disregard for our long institutionalized norms or the laws that reflect them. Not in the least. There's more to their taking the levels of risk they are today, and have since Trump was elected. The only credible explanation I can come up with is Trump has a huge hammer, compliments of Putin, with which many if nor most Rs can and are being threatened; that is, blackmailed. The Rs are literally afraid for their lives, or at least their lives as they know and live them now. Everything is at risk for them should the stuff that Putin/Trump have over them come out -- especially in a court of law. That's the only thing that makes all of this sensible in my mind.
