It is really is very simple now and binary.
I don’t expect Republican office holders to get it, right away, because they are pretty much all sociopaths with a very healthy sprinkling of psychotics.
But if Trump prevails, the Republican Party survives.
If Trump is cast aside in favor of a demented, disgusting old pol who committed treason, then the Republican Party dies.
It’s that simple.
I agree with you, Trump is the very last line of defense right now. If he loses I will not be alive to see a free America again. My wife is a democrat and she can not understand why I am so upset at the state of our nation and the cheating, rioting, etc. She just doesn’t see the big picture, like most don’t.
