Not so much that they are suddenly great guys, but that they are strong representatives of the right and even they acknowledge the idiocy of Trump, and the damage he has done.
Saw a story where he was claiming that it was Trump's fault he stored the capitol. Which, duh, he wants to blame someone else so he doesn't go to jail. But the press is riveted.
It's more about watching what looks like a cult member come to his senses. Its fascinating to see how world view crumble as he sees that things are not as he was told they were.
