I think a majority of them are coming around.
There are still going to be a decent number of RINOs and NeverTrumpers, but I think the majority of the party will be behind him solidly if he has the evidence to go after these buffoons.
I don’t. Look at the garbage pile omnibus bill. Look at the Senate intel committee now. It is defacto being run by the Democrat minority. How pathetic is that?

It’s very pathetic ... but Trump passed that omnibus nonsense to stave off a government shutdown knowing all of what we’ve seen the past 48 hours was going to unfold. It also *seems* (no facts to back this up) that a lot of the GOP Trump bashing is subsiding somewhat ... you still have your idiots like McCain running their mouths, but scum like Flake and his ilk haven’t been exactly out there trashing Trump 24/7 ... I think something is going on behind the scenes (could be wrong of course ... I’m speculating).
Also, the Senate Intel Committee *must* play their cards such that they look like they are under Dem control. One misstep and the Dems have a narrative for when some of their Gods are indicted. Do what the Dems say, and they have NOBODY to blame but themselves.
I will tell you this, if I’m wrong and business as usual persists after this campaign spies/wiretap story plays out, then we are completely screwed :-) ... however, I’m holding out hope that there is some semblance of strategy going on here while the swamp is being drained. They’re up against a pack of rabid lawyers with a fawning media propping them up ... every single i must be dotted and t must be crossed if you’re going to bring them down legally.
Distractions like spending bills have to be cast aside if this is going to unfold the way it should unfold (the Dems knew this and upped the ante on spending ... the GOPe also doesn’t really like passing up pork ... but Trump was obviously disgusted with the bill despite signing it ... I can give him a pass on that, but I am outright losing my patience with the lack of spending cuts being proposed).
