I will point out that The Hill is conservative in its editorial board, but not Trumpist. I think in the weeks ahead that distinction is going to become more and more important. It's coloring their perspective a little bit here, too: sure, in 2016, Trump couldn't get majorities of his party. But now? It took a goddamn pandemic and insurrection to get his national approval numbers to drop below 40%, and only just. Are we really sure he can't hold a majority of the Republican party now? That said, going for the kill might be the right choice anyway. It's certainly the Right choice.
