    The vast majority of elected Republicans are not going to break with Trump. Which means even if he's not the nominee in 2024 or later, he'll be a force in the party (unlike, say, post-1974 Nixon). Any thinking on "unity" has to factor that in.

        Why? I don’t understand this, even now many supporters are turning on him and on the GOP, why not break with Trump and have safety net to catch all Trump defectors?

        The foundation of the party at this point is 1/2 the party believing that culture politics is a show and all that matters is tax cuts and judges and the other 1/2 signing on for continual vicious culture war. That arrangement collapses completely if they start talking about it.

        The insurrection kind of made it more of an open question, I think, but yeah... there's a definitely possibility of that. At least, if he's competent enough to make use of it.https://medium.com/the-longer-take/just-because-trump-is-out-of-office-doesnt-mean-he-s-out-of-power-4bb0526eefea …

        If GOP elected would stand against him, his faction would dwindle to a tiny minority. However, they fear they can't win without that group, so it's likely the GOP will keep Trump's political career going out of cowardice.
