And they have no choice now but to go all the way to the end.

They only had to look at history to know that Trump would bring them to this point- but they closed their eyes and took step after step, blindly following him despite all the glaring warning signs.

They are lost now, there is no road back to where they once were. They have chained themselves to Trump. If he goes down they all go down.

And if Trump succeeds, we ALL go down- they know this as well- but they are clinging to the hope that in the process of dismantling the constitution, their enemies will suffer somewhat more harm than themselves....

At this point they will accept that as a 'win'.

That is how low they have fallen.
