But they won't be able to do that because you are going to lose to 900 year old Biden and let him replace Alito and Thomas.

And all these hard working people gave you their time and their money and their votes, and you responded by making the Senate run off all about you, you, you, so now Chuck Schumer is the thank you these people got

With every sentence, I'd constantly frame it as Trump's base vs. Trump. Give them permission to turn on him.

You all worked so hard for him, and he sold you out.
You all just want your kids to be safe, and he sold you out.
You all just want to beat Biden, and he won't step aside and let you.

It will probably fail, but if you take down the King, then you get the crown

The gamble here is that if you tie Trump to all of the losers he supported, a fair number of those people ALSO supported the Herschel Walkers, Kari Lakes, etc.

And the even bigger issue is that where his base has turned on him, it's to go even further extreme than him - like Covid vaccines. He got booed for bringing it up. They created a monster that is only appeased by more extreme policies and candidates.
