I think what is needed for the GOP to free itself from the grip of Donald Trump is some sort of investigative Journalism. Below is a link of Alexei Navalny’s investigation on Putin’s 1,5 Billion Dolar, 200,000 square feet, within a 180 acres no-entry zone with vineyard etc. that was entirely built with public funds as a gift from Putin’s kleptocracy to the Tsar of Russian Kleptocracy (There is even a symbol of Russian Tzars at the entry of this palace).
The video is long and boring but you watch the first and final 10 minutes (In the middle parts he is simply providing the evidence for his accusations).

Of course, there has been little impact as a result of the publication of this video in Russia (for now). But in a free country like the US, if such allegation could be made against Donald Trump, it could free the rest of us from having to watch the third season of the Dallas series all over again
