Most Republicans are like the wife that is afraid to leave the highly abusive husband. Other than losing recent elections, indictments, etc, its interesting that the Trump brand has been successful in steamrolling most party opponents (mostly by a kind of WWF/Religious Revival/Snake Oil kind of "all or nothing", which makes rivals look weak...at least among the ill-informed). Libertarianism has been gobbled up by Trump. It used to stand for reasonable things like tolerance of pot, abortion, g&l but in Trump's hands is all anti government (unless it involves him of course).
