"They didn't stand up to Trump" makes it sound like Trump is something that happened to them.
No. They welcomed Trump with open arms. They bent over backwards to defend Trump.
They changed their entire identity to become all about Trump.
When Trump cozied up to Russia, they started loving Russia.
When Trump tried to overthrow the election, they stormed the capital for him, and protected him from impeachment.
They are all as culpable as Trump.
The analogy I like is that Trump is like the high school coach who fed the team steroids and meth to win games. Now the team is burning down the school.
Sure, except I can't picture Trump doing that much work.
There's a great graphic novel about a small town crime boss who is also the local football coach. And yes, being a coach would be too much work for the reall Donnie

Their version of regret is a quick rewrite of recent history
Well said.
And when Trump is gone, they'll probably continue to be like Trump. That party is dead to me.
