Trump has become extremely skilled at blowing that dog whistle every time someone crosses him. And by labeling Republicans who "do the right thing" as "RINOs," he's already raised the ire of his more unstable cult members.

Sure, they are worried about their careers. I think they are equally worried about their safety, and that is NOT unwarrented.
