I dunno. We might be able to see Trump’s barbs as helpful in opposing Cheney (who most people here would likely opposed if she were the candidate). But I don’t think Cheney and Trump are just different sides of the same coin - one is definitely worse than the other.
I do think that people like Cheney secretly need the Trumps of this world. It allows them to say “Look, I’m the reasonable one.” My concern is that the Overton window has expanded significantly to the right and authoritarianism in a relatively short time.
