That would be smart if they don’t want a repeat of the 2016 primary plurality path that Trump used to win.

Mik

Indeed.

My sense of it is that while I hate the persecution Trump encountered, I still don't want him back in office. I suspect a whole lot of other people feel the same way.

Yep.

Don't know if that would work, even if they cleared the field. Nationally, Trump is at 59% in the nafional averages...

Mik

But can he win? I have serious doubts. If he doesn't, he's seriously damaged the party. It's time for him to go.

The only thing that matters right now is if he can/will win the GOP nomination.

One step at a time, and I can't see him upended at this point.

Mik

Disagree. Of course, I think he will hurt the party if he wins both too.

Horace

There is no doubt that large factions of the self righteous, bloodthirsty left, are hoping he is their opponent. The good vs evil messaging will be thick in the atmosphere, and all the usual suspects will take their opportunity to sneer and condemn and punish all the bad people. They also assume they will win the election.

Doubt seriously that happens.

Mik

He’d never be in genpop, and I suspect he’d be pretty popular anyway.

Jolly

With a Secret Service detail...
