Trump is guaranteeing that he maintains his grip on 30% of the population's reality, filled with conspiracies, racism and lies.
And we thought the US was split before. We'll see what GOP leadership does, though. Their party does risk splitting between Trump's deplorables and people who prefer the real world.

Privately I'm betting the GOP would be happy as pigs in s*** if Trump just went away quietly and disappeared. But because they're such spineless cowards, they feel they have no choice but to continue to kiss his arse and follow him off the cliff.
Going against Trump means pissing off the MAGA cult, which is at least half of their current base. They need the cult to win the Georgia runoffs and keep control of the Senate. Once the runoff election is over, I could see the GOP finally turning on Trump and cutting ties, depending on the results.
