"It’s not unusual for staunch critics of a candidate to turn around and support them as their party’s nominee, but the expressed differences are typically related to policy — not mental stability, criminal activity, or a desire to end free and fair elections."

"typically related to policy"--Any Republicans or former Republicans who now disavow Trump and may have even admitted publicly they will support Biden, ALWAYS claim they support Biden DESPITE THEIR DISAGREEMENT WITH HIS POLICIES.

Republicans like Barr and McConnell do not care about policy. They care about pure, raw power. And they know they must stay with the script Donald Trump has written with the hope that enough voters will believe their narrative. They can't waver from the script one single word or the entire Republican Party collapses into irrelevance. All we can hope for is that there are more Americans who have figured out that this election is not about policy choices. It's about whether there is a majority of American voters in the right states who recognize that it's about who we want to be as a country--criminal, corrupt, nasty, or inclusive, kind, collaborative.
