Well there goes my assumption about her strategy. I thought she was positioning herself as the person who would not kiss the ring if Trump should lose, as the "obvious" choice to lead the party that feels they need to throw trumpism under the bus.
Now, it seems pointless, she had both appeared too anti Trump and also ultimately just another Trump adherent. Seems to be a good way to alienate both sides of the Trump phenomenon.
Republicans almost never fail to fall in line for their party. This is probably why the party is so politically effective. I wonder if it has something to do with their worldview and belief in hierarchy. Or, maybe they just don't want to be exiled and unable to continue their grifts.
They are NOT in a Cult!
You're going to have to do more than that, Nikki, if you want Trump's endorsement—a lot more.
