yeah this whole thing strikes me as a weird exercise. the GOP is clearly still on the fence about whether they want to stick with Trump. I think your point about trying to divorce Trump from Trumpism is very salient. I guess this is what primaries are about: the party doesn't want to make this decision, so they're leaving it to the base and the candidates to hash it out. Personally, I love watching them squirm. i'm sure by the next debate they'll be even more at each others' throats.
