I gotta say, this guy fascinates me. He broke the unspoken rule of not threatening the party's status quo, and is completely unrepentant about it. Does he really think he can control the MAGAheads? Do you guys think he can pull a Nixon in 4 years and garner all the Goldwater (Trump) support?

    st.

    To be serious, I think whether anyone else can harness the Trump movement largely depends on what Trump himself does, how engaged he remains, and whether he attempts to anoint a successor. I do think he has a better chance than Ted Cruz simply because he is not repulsive to human eyes and ears.

      Trump's so selfish I can't imagine him appointing a successor. Not even one of his doofus sons.

        Ivanka, maybe. He introduced her at his Georgia rally and said he was encouraging her to run for office. Take that however you will.
