      A lot of them don’t want him. Hell, huge amounts of Republicans are following Nikki and voting Dem now. They have become a cult, and like any cult, they become more radical over time. The more radical they become, the less that remain, making the remaining few even more radical. That happens over and over till there are a very radical few left who do something crazy.
