The important thing to realize: Republican leaders and “the establishment” did not learn anything from Trump. They didn’t want to. And they don’t care if half the country voted for him. They don’t care about you and don’t consider you their boss. They’ve been in denial for 4yrs.
The denial of R elite (that the base already left them when it chose Trump) isn’t going to change.
“But—but—won’t this lead the party off a cliff? Won’t this lead to their own demise?”
Yes, yes it will. But they don’t believe it. You saw the inauguration yesterday, didn’t you?

These people do not hold themselves accountable to you, but to the corrupt oligarchy. To the ruling class. Their allegiance is not to you. This will be their undoing unless they flip completely to the other side and stop pretending. But don’t expect them to change or “get it.”
So, what now? A new political movement that rejects the grift & respects the people, that’s what. New red state leadership. We replace all these bastards w/best leverage we have in far more belligerent & explicit/honest terms than ever before. We cancel denialism on the right.
They will never apologize. Instead, they’ll demand *you* apologize for disappointing them.
