Sauve qui peut, ‘rats.

The progressives have a vast network of institutions in which to go dormant: in schools, in the arts, the bureaucracy. But first they must survive the winter; the financial winter of their own making or at least of their own compounding. Once the retreat is over, their recovery can be quick as the dormant cells spring back self-righteously into active existence.

The progressives must be purged. Independents and RINOS won’t like that, but if they are not vigorously pursued, routed and decimated, they’ll be back.

Who has the fire in the belly for that?
