    trump is a useful moron, to them. he’s easily manipulated and brings an enormous, and apparently unshakeable support base. if they still have political (or even personal) goals or aspirations, why would they shoot themselves in the foot by denouncing him?

      Yeah I think trump plays in the vices of both legislators and his voters. He acts as a big gateway for whatever bullshit. Mary trump called him out some time ago, he’s dumb, cruel, easy to manipulate, and he’s always been a popular useful idiot. It is not dumb luck pushing him upward, he’s surrounded by incredibly scary people.
