Exactly. All the Republican insiders who have privately (or not so privately) trashed Trump must come out publicly and in some coordinated fashion to say loud and clear: 1) how bad he is and the threat that he poses and 2) state that everyone who loves their country and reveres the Constitution should vote for any non-Trumpy Republican in the primary and for Biden if in fact the choice in the general is Trump v Biden.

That we are in an emergency situation, desperate times etc.

Elaborate that preserving our stability, prosperity, and peace as a nation in the short-term requires this, after which rebuilding the Republican party and working to identify a non-fascist candidate who respects the Constitution to compete in 2028 can commence.

This will not move most of the base, but will give the Republican voters who don't like Trump but despise Dems enough doubts along with the permission structure to at least stay home. It could very well make the difference.
