The spectacle of the Republican party leadership gearing up to rescue Trump from impeachment is remarkable. As soon as he can, he's going to stab them all in the back, either collectively or one by one, as he has done so many times before. Don't they see that?

I would think that the instinct for self-preservation alone, never mind considerations of justice or patriotism, would persuade them to bar him from public life.

They see it the opposite way. They’re afraid that if they do not protect him he will stab them in the back. Justice and patriotism not contributing factors.
