I say no, it's to far gone?!! And what's left of responsible republicans, they should start a third party?!!
Last chance for the GOP to save itself
Here is a question for Republicans to consider before next week’s midterm elections: How far does former President Donald Trump have to go before the GOP kicks him out of the party? Put another way, will the Republican Party save itself before it has completely lost its soul?
It has been deeply disappointing to see so few GOP leaders and Republicans in Congress challenge Trump’s takeover of the GOP. It has been equally disappointing to see so many Americans buy Trump’s “big lie” about the 2020 election.
If the party can redeem itself, it will be up to the rank and file to send an unmistakable message to top leadership.
On Nov. 8, grassroots Republicans who know that extremism and violence will not make America great could shake the party’s leaders awake by boycotting the election, leaving the ballot blank in congressional races, refusing to vote for candidates Trump supports, or even writing in Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who has vocally opposed Trump and served on the committee investigating Jan. 6 —costing her the role of House GOP conference chair and her primary to keep her seat.
However Republicans do it, they should show there is no longer room for Trump.
Trump continues corrupting the party of Lincoln in ways that will be difficult, if not impossible, to repair. He has brought America to the brink of civil war by invoking the worst in human behavior. Yet, even with mounting evidence of Trump’s involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection, even after he became the first president to be impeached twice, and even though he has normalized lying — even from the bully pulpit — as well as hate and violence among his supporters, very few Republicans have had the spine to criticize him, let alone force him out of the party.
