It's hilarious that they still consider "bipartisan progress" a useful frame. The only direction trump and co are progressing is towards solidifying fascism. Compromising with that is just helping them.

They need to help Trump make things worse so next election they can push an even more establishment candidate that won't have to run on anything other than anti-MAGA, but that will end up keeping many of the Elon Trump changes.

That approach won't win them an election, because it will inspire no one to actually get out to vote. If they do that they will never be elected again.
