The Republican Party is in danger of being severely damaged this November by continuing to follow the egocentric and incompetent President. He is losing his base and when that happens the party’s down ticket suffers.

John Bolton’s book presented a few new facts about Trump and his minion’s incompetence. They fear the President if they don’t fawn over him and protect him from criticism. Bolton details Trump’s lack of knowledge and ability. His erratic self-promotion at the expense of America is now becoming a liability.

Conservative stalwarts of the party are starting to criticize and fall away from him. With the scent of blood in the polls, many real Republicans are looking for a way off the Trump parade. Even Pence and McConnell are publicly going their own way.

His continued mismanagement of the virus has caused and continues to cause tens of thousands of deaths and millions of unemployed Americans. Vice President Pence and their science advisors tell us to wear masks but Trump says it is up to the local officials which he then criticizes for their decisions. It is the same thing he did in March and April when he said he would supply PPE, then said the Governors should, he would, and then abdicated on the problem.

Republicans have a history of not trusting the leaders of North Korea, China, and Russia since they are enemies, not having a bro-romance as Trump is having. These foreign leaders know how to manage him and have gotten all they want. Real Republicans are upset over his compliance.

Sooner or later Republicans will see they have tied themselves to a racist, lying, egocentric man who will leave a scorched earth party. At a time when the white base is a shrinking minority, Republicans are supporting an anvil, not a conservative anchor.
