This was/is a serious problem that doesn't get enough talk.

There were dime-a-dozen clips from 2015/before of GOP politicians speaking truth about Trump. Then they all flipped when they realized their careers in politics would end if they didn't fall in line because their voter base all became Trump diehards.
