Well, Trumpism only to the extent that Trumpism means placing the personal interests of Donald Trump above all the other things the party could be doing. THAT was the aspect of Trumpism on display from 11/4 to 1/6. THAT cost Senate seats & triggered a riot. THAT must go.

Not at the expense of abandoning the issues Trump championed that allowed him to take over the party. The voters won’t go for it.

How is at at that expense? In what way? The whole point is that even the issues he championed were thwarted by his behavior. Unless by "issues" you mean lying about who won the election. Mitch isn't pushing a policy rethinking at all.

Can we win without the support of the 60 million people who voted for Mitt Romney? People move on.

What happens if Trump doesn’t run in 2024? Do we want him speaking at the convention? Absolutely. Having Republicans vote to convict him makes that damn awkward.

How many past GOP nominees spoke at the last 2 conventions? Trump at the 2024 RNC means we're relitigating the Capitol riot & "rigged election." Plus he'll demand the nominee debase him/herself w/obeisance & demands to get his endorsement.

I know you don’t like it but he is by far the most popular Republican, GOP voters haven’t had a relationship to a president like this since Reagan. And he demographically grows the party.

But the goal of a convention is not to speak to the people who will vote for even a losing GOP ticket. It's to win the people whose abandonment of the party caused you to lose in 2020.

What about those voters who will abandon the party when you cancel Trump and nominate yet another establishment candidate? That will happen. Good luck winning without Trump voters, I seriously wish you well, but you will be doing it without us.

By "establishment candidate" I assume you mean literally anyone other than Trump or his family?
