If they (the whole Republican caucus) supported him, they could have stayed open and voted it down. Nothing that’s happened has advanced their position. The committee vote wasn’t improved by Trump and Johnson becoming weaker. You’re too deep in the grand conspiracy theory to actually capitalize on changes in the political landscape. In your eyes, every development at every point in time is just another example of the enemy winning, so whatever happens must be what they want and it must be moving you further from your goals. But there’s no winning with that mindset. You’ll never see when there is an opportunity to rally workers to contact representatives in a newly chaotic political environment where they’re off balance because the previous status quo of blind loyalty to leadership is in doubt.

They’re not your friends and the game isn’t won, none of this is a development that means we can all just sit back and wait for success, but being at maximum doom all the time means you’re not prepared to take advantage of their weakness.
