GOP politicians trying to distance themselves without pissing off the base
If Trump loses, all hell's going to break loose within the party; but, till then, everyone's going to play nice for lack of any viable alternative.

Granted globalist neocons funded progressive liberal leader groomed in NYC values leading Republicans currently is not perfect, some respect should be maintained for the office when Republicans decide to distance themselves from a sitting leader.
Exclusive: GOP Sen. Sasse says Trump 'kisses dictators' butts' and mocks evangelicals

Republican Sen. Ben Sasse excoriated President Trump in a telephone conference call with constituents this week, saying he had mishandled the coronavirus response, "kisses dictators' butts," "sells out our allies," spends "like a drunken sailor," mistreats women, and trash-talks evangelicals behind their backs.
Trump has "flirted with white supremacists," according to Sasse, and his family "treated the presidency like a business opportunity." He said Trump could drive the Senate into the hand of the Democrats and cause permanent damage to the Republican Party.
Sasse, a possible GOP candidate for president in 2024, is up for reelection on Nov. 3 and is expected to cruise to victory.
In an audio clip of the call, obtained by the
Washington Examiner, a female constituent asks Sasse to explain “your relationship with the president” and wonders, “Why do you have to criticize him so much?”

At first, Sasse focused on his points of agreement with Trump. But the senator soon began to unload, spending the majority of his nearly ten-minute answer assailing the president.
Sasse spokesman James Wegmann confirmed that his boss made the comments, saying the call occurred earlier this week.
