          Trump differed in that he was giddy about attacking the "other". He was excited to attack Muslims and Mexicans and Chinese. He could barely, most of the time, refrain from open support of racists. Cotton and Hawley will take the same tack, but in a way that is less appalling to the bare minimum of moderates. They'll be less creepy doing it than Cruz. Trump will look cosmopolitan in his attitude toward the LGBTQ community compared to these 2, though they will stress how horribly Christians are oppressed. Trump will too close to death in 4 years.

          Only chance for a non-Fash Republican could maybe be if Kamala is running unopposed and the "moderates" are all voting in the Republican primary (as helped Biden this time, with Trump running unopposed)
