When your ship is sinking, there comes a point where you must abandon the ship.

If you don't you will go down with the ship and drown. There is a point where it becomes every man for himself. The Republicans have dug themselves a big hole. They are searching for a way out. The first thing they should do is stop digging. I still believe their best option is to force Trump to resign.

From this point forward things are not going to get better for Trump or the Republicans, they are going to get worse. Things will not get better for them during the trial. No matter how the Republicans vote in the trial, things will not get better. There will be many more investigations after the trial. There are court decisions coming that will not help them. The ship is sinking and there is nothing that can stop it.

Trump and the Republican have no defense. They have been caught red handed. They continue to lie and cover up as their defense. That does not work forever.

In my opinion, the Republicans would be making a grave mistake not removing Trump for these reasons. The majority of Americans would see it as a cover up. More and more evidence is coming out. It has become so obvious , Trump and the Republicans are guilty.

Trump will commit more crimes if he is not removed. Trump will make more foolish mistakes if he is not removed. The Republicans will be held responsible for everything Trump does if they let a clearly guilty Trump walk.

If the Republicans do not remove Trump, their fear of Trump may be the least of their worries. You should never fear doing the right thing. Many Republicans are now in legal jeopardy. They may believe protecting Trump is their best defense. In reality, in time, it will be a fatal mistake. They will go down with the ship and drown.
