Ah, all right...perhaps they should go further back to Bush or Reagan then. The point is, I think those coalitions don't exist anymore.

There are, however, potential Republican candidates who aren't sociopathic fascists like Trump (sociopathic anyway) who might make respectable national candidates.

You mean like the two senate candidates from Georgia? Forgot the names of those losers already.

The point is that Trump is poison - the coup has tainted his brand beyond repair, and he was already one of the most unpopular incumbent Presidents in a century. If they continue to allow him to be the face of the party they're screwed. Choosing another path at least gives them a chance.

He's still the most popular Republican. Well, there is time for this other path to materialize, I just don't see it yet.
