Basically...,Trust me breh I know all that but its alot deeper and more nefarious than that.. The base has nothing to do with it. The party is clearly made up of Russian subversives that are there to enable the Russian agenda. If the base turned on him tomorrow, the Republicans would still do nothing because half are either compromised, being blackmailed or willing Russian assets.
The GOP ain’t scared of the base they are scared of Russian intel and Putin exposing them hence they way the letting trump wild out but like @Dameon Farrow sais come January the game done changed
