Of course they are impotent. The NeverTrumpers, and I am talkin' about those who most embrace the name, make up a very narrow class of people within the beltway or loosely associated with the party for economic reasons--- the chamber of commerce champs and the the libertarian-leaning nitwits.
Problem is, it is a two-front war. There is a sizable chunk of social conservatives allied with those NeverTrumpers. There seems to be a lot of them making this into a piety issue and they won't be budging.
So it is a two-front problem. And if it were one or the other, they would be much easier to persuade back into the fold. The two only embolden their positions. And trying to assuage two groups with not so much overlap is a tough trick.
