I think he will, but there might be a real primary challenge.

    If he still lives and isn’t a senile potato sure. Though he already almost got beat by Nikki Haley in the last primaries.

    Some more extreme right winger will probably take Trumps place in 2028. Gotta keep sliding right.

      “almost” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. I think she never got more than 20%, which is insane for any challenger to someone “incumbant-like”, but she didn’t come close to almost beating him.

      I suspect that if he loses again, maybe the republican party gets actually serious about rebuking him, like they kind of did after January 6th for a minute, and then maybe a bit more after their embarrassing 2022 results.

        She won 40% in some states

        She wasn’t going to win but she actually did far better than expected. Though she did notably have a ton of AIPAC funding behind her.

          Ok, I didn’t recognize that in some states she did manage to only lose by a 20% margin, which is still a huge margin and I still wouldn’t call that “almost”.

      Uh, the primaries were not competitive at all. Not sure what you’re on about.
