The Democrats are really stupid. They had the high ground on the "save democracy" issue but put their tribe before their country and supported MAGA candidates in the Republican Primary to enhance their political chances. They did a disservice to their country.
As I wrote in a recent comment, parties are organizations designed to win elections. When they cease to do that, they tend reevaluate their politics. The Republican Party doesn't recognize itself. It won't do the necessary soul searching until its very existence is a risk.
And this is why Romney should not help Mike Lee. On a personal level Mike Lee didn't help Romney in his hour of need but that's secondary to Lee's efforts to support the autocoup.
Evan McMillan is a snake. He says he will not caucus with the Democrats but that's probably a lie. A lying politician, wow. There are many who voted for him in 2016 who regret that vote. No, they wouldn't have voted for Trump, perhaps writing in Ben Sasse or even Mitch Daniels would have been better. But right now, the Republicans just need to lose so Mitt needs to do the right thing for his country. Mike Lee needs to pay for his sins.
BTW, did you see the comment by the potential future Speaker Kevin McCarthy that aid to Ukraine may be reduced once the Republicans take the House? WTH? Yet another good reason for the Republicans to lose. We'll deal with the damage Democrats do later.
