Moderate Republicans?

Some Republican congresspeople are seen as "moderates". I'm skeptical. Given the radical views of the Trump administration, wouldn't a Republican politician with any kind of reasonable positions on the issues switch parties? This is especially true in the Senate where a switch of three votes could block Trump from stacking the Supreme Court with Scalia mini-me's.

They appear every 2, 4, or 6 years in campaign commercials and many dumbasses believe it!
