    The GOP absolutely loves Trump. They say they don’t like him but often parrot and amplify his talking points.

      The GOP loves the votes that Trump brings in, not Trump.

        I don’t think there’s much of a difference between the two with the flip flopping and rhetoric that has been rampant since 2016

        This article from 2022 sums it up nicely

        I can dig up more direct quotes if you like, but suffice to say the GOP are all in on the Trump brand. I don’t think the difference is the nuanced argument you would like it to be. Lots of high ranking Nazis in the post war era talked about how much they hated Hitler. Fascism is a self serving ideology, they love you until they have no use for you, look at how Ben Shapiro is currently floundering for a modern example.
