The shot callers don’t run the train anymore. Republicans have always dealt with radical far right candidates who challenge the establishment. But they only managed to beat the establishment once (1964) until Trump. I don’t think we’re going back to another era of Bush, Romney, McCain republicans winning the nomination. It’s Trump’s party now.they already do just by being republicans tho republican voters fall in line
i mean like i said, i hope they really are dumb enough to double down on trumpism. but the shot callers and bosses are gonna read the polls and start to figure out how to get the suburbs back
Consider that if he loses the narrative will be that Trump was betrayed by the republican establishment who conspired with the media, elites, science, socialists etc to beat him. He’s going to be a tragic figure and someone will run on making America great again. Pompeo? Pence? Cotton? Who knows. But winning Trump voters will be key. That’s why I think people like Nikki Haley and Rubio are gonna get clowned hard. They’re gonna try to run an establishment campaign and get blown out.
