"Republicans are not falling in line with Trump. They are not fearful of Trump.... Hope Hicks, days after the 2020 election was brought in the oval office by Trump and she asked, why don't you give up? Just go back to Palm Beach, live your life. You can always run again. Have a good life. Trump tells Hope, no. You don't understand me. I have to fight, because that's what my people, my base wants. They demand that of me, so I must do it."
