That seems right to me... hell, they almost nominated Ellison as DNC chair, who could best be described as "the guy Republicans must have been confusing Obama with for all those years". The establishment's grip over that party is just as tenuous as the GOP's was when they lost their hold over it.

Hmm I guess I can see that. Not sure I agree, but what do I know.
I think if Trump gets impeached it mostly bursts the bubble on Republicans.
It would be such a huge story that everybody would want to get in on it. The dirt on just how immoral and incompetent the Trump regime would start to come out, without there being anyone who would have a real reason to defend it. I think only the worst fanatics could defend him at that point.
It would leave most of GOP looking guilty by association. I think the chaos and media frenzy could just as easily get them absolutely murdered in the following election.
