Why Lindsay Graham and GOP politicians continue to back Trump? [View all]
They (Republican pols) all need to placate Trump supporters who are the base of the GOP. And so far almost all continue to back Trump! This election, though a bad loss, cemented Trump's power as his presence on the ballot brought out an additional 10 million more votes than last time (so did Joe of course with 11M more than Hillary).
If they don't, they will lose their jobs and power.
Even out of office, Trump will still have a great deal of power, because of his supporters (who love him more than the GOP).
He may try to block Biden from the sidelines. McConnell will no doubt go along as he already has signaled that he intends to roadblock Joe Biden.
