Your last paragraph is what Im encouraging to happen. There is a Traditional GOP, they just have to stay hidden because they feel isolated and scared. They know how evil MAGA is, they hear them saying the worst stuff behind closed doors that we dont hear (but still know their intentions). In addition, they have bought into their own propaganda that the Dems want to kill all of them. Right now, there isn't an environment where they feel safe enough to fight back.

If the Dems made it clear that they'd be willing to work with the Trad GOP, they might find them receptive, especially after these tariffs hit, and they start getting savaged by their REPUBLICAN constituents.

They have to keep the back channels open, and we might not even hear about it, until they start making their moves.

I intend to let my non-MAGA Republican senators know that I will suppprt them when they finally make their move. Plant the seed that there is support for a temporary alliance to crush MAGA.
