You'd have to be stupid to still embrace him if that happens.

If he loses and/or November is a Republican massacre down-ballot, there's a decent chance that Trump and his entire family, for that matter, get purged from the party. He'd be a 2-time General Election loser and his DIL, who is basically running the RNC, will have overseen a blue wave. You'd have to be stupid to still embrace him if that happens

If that happens, then stick a fork in it.

People won’t go back to voting for “traditional DC Pubs” again mainly because those Bush-McCain-Romney type Pubs possess no credibility anymore with a sizeable portion of the GOP base.

Even if Trump is “gone”, people aren’t going to suddenly develop amnesia to the GOP ineptitude and go-along/get-along mode of operation (that made Trump an attractive alternative to begin with).

We might as well settle in for permanent Dem control, or for the sake of keeping up appearances once in awhile , the occasional GOP UniParty type who has fundamental Dem approval behind the scenes.
