As a committed no more Rino zealot I think I can explain why your argument may not sway the stay at homers. The scenario you describe is sound and true, but they think maybe that is what needs to happen. Who is John Galt? Instead of holding our noses and voting, lets just fight! I may be wrong as I myself have never skipped an election, but that is how I understand the sentiment.
I’m a no more RINO guy also. I truly despise the Paul Ryans of the world.
Realistically, it often comes down to a Hobson’s Choice.
I’m suggesting that this wouldn’t have happened without the Dem House take over. Eff, who knows? Suppose the Dems ran the Senate right now, Trump would be [legally] gone. What would we do? I know how I’d feel, I don’t how I would act on it.
