What it's going to take to break the spell of Non-Trump legislators to part with him:

To publicly contradict him, to criticize him policy-wise, not personal attacks when campaigning. And to win their elections with that stance.


Despite the hue and cry and threats by Trump's "base", I believe there are enough hidden "Not Trump" Republicans who could win in some strategic districts and states. And if elected, those "Not Trump" republican legislators challenge their respective leaders.



I'm not concerned about the donors. Lots of them would support their "courage".
