"Whenever Trump was investigated personally, he responded unconstitutionally. He attempted to obstruct justice. He attempted to get rid of attorney generals. He clearly tried to rig the election by using foreign policy to get Biden in trouble with Ukraine. There are plenty of instances where he seems ultimately unconcerned, the ultimate being January 6th where he sits there and allows the capital of the United Stats be ransacked and have a riot outside of it in order to slow and defer the certification of the election.

It didn't end the Republican... because the general idea that Trump had was so cochamamie and concocted by such loonies... his ego could not allow himself to accept that he lost. This was an attempt not to seize power, but to appease his ego."
