GOP senators may fall into one of three categories: 1) guilty co-conspirators who actively advanced the Biden investigation who knew it was a sham, 2) blind enablers who found it politically expedient to deliberately bury their heads in the sand and 3) party loyalists who, until recently, were misled to believe that Biden did something wrong and Guiliani was doing a good thing to try to expose it.
Those in group 1 and 2 are lost forever, and no amount of evidence is going to change their minds.Unfortunately, the party platform and megaphones are dominated by members of those two categories.
The third category, though, holds potential. People don't like being suckers. Unfortunately, they have very little voice in the party and feel bullied by Trump.
We have to convince the third category, even if its a minority - it's a crucial one-- that they are SUCKERS, and the bully has them by the balls.

(11,885 posts)We're found out by Putin from hacking into their RNC how corrupt and criminal they were compromising them, then funneling money, bribes, to help then win, and with their hackers helping them. Has Putin corrupted our government now, first with trump , and now with the Republican Party. Is that the real reason some are aptly out loyalty to trump now, knowing they're compromised?
