I blame the party for offering them inducements to quit and making it know they’d ratfuck anyone who didn’t go along with the plan.

But mostly I blame Blue MAGA cultists who’ve kept their eyes squeezed tight shut any time their party is just as bad as the other one and every time the party has played dirty tricks to keep its donors happy at the expense of its voters. Because y’all are the ones letting them get away with it and continuing to reward the behavior with your vote.
