In other words: I'm too tired to keep fighting the MAGA extremists. Someone else needs to step up.
Unfortunately for our country, I'm not sure such a person with credibility on the right still exists.
And also unfortunately for our country, the MAGA extremists don't get tired. They relish the chaos and destruction.
By not running again Mitt has made another seat available for another MAGA extremist.
If there are no reasonable Republican candidates, or if the reasonable candidates are disliked by the constituents, then this is just what the GOP is now. This is their new face, or their old face with the mask off, or whatever. I wish there was a spot somewhere in-between the two extremes for ordinary people, but this is what the failed system has produced.
