That’s probably true, but there also the possibility that most prominent conservatives of that character have already been weeded out over the years.

Too late to use it against Trump. They've tried and failed. They'll have to come up with something new. They'll be able to use it against Republicans in general for the 2018 cycle, but by 2020 the issue will have burned out.
