You're making assumptions that Republican leaders actually care about America more than they care about Trump and the stripped-down ideals that he represents.Never happen.
If the Republican party used Faithless Electors to give Trump a second term even though he lost the election, they'd be out of power for a generation. The American public would neither forget nor forgive. To say nothing of the massive civil unrest that would result. So many American cities would burn, they'd see the flames in Canada and Mexico.
The GOP isn't going to risk those kind of catastrophic consequences for Donald fucking Trump.
Post "Contract with America" Republicanism is just a long term grift that's mutated over the years into the form it's taken today. Not even sure if Trump's the final boss either.
