I don't think they have a choice, see Liz Cheney


If the GOP stood as a group for basic decency, at one of the many revolting points in Trump's political career, they would have a much better chance of election success without embracing him. So far very few in the GOP have decided to do what's right instead of what's political expedient, and those few are doing it one at a time and getting picked off. The remaining Trump loyalists also have a 5-year track record of accommodating that piece of shit. That is a disqualifying item on their resumes that decent Americans will never forgive.

So the GOP is stuck with him as long as he's alive. Lindsay Graham was right in 2016 when he said if they nominate Trump they'll get destroyed and they'll deserve it. We're watching that destruction in slow motion. Couldn't happen to a more cowardly bunch.
