The GOP is in a bind. If Trump doesn’t win the nomination, he will likely run as a third party candidate.

You can’t ride the tiger, Republicans. It will always turn back and eat you.

@georgetakei he will win the nomination.
@BoRIStheWiZARD @georgetakei
Imagining that Trump will not win the nomination sounds like the denialism that led to him winning the presidency in 2016
@AccordionBruce @georgetakei hes polling 30% among conservatives which is the same polling he did in 2016. For some odd reason people think the other 70% are reasonable. That 70% just have issue how to deliver their message.
@AccordionBruce @BoRIStheWiZARD @georgetakei maybe. If you look at the rallies so far, he isn’t doing so hot. And it’s much harder to brand yourself as the drain the swamp outsider when you’ve already *had* a term. I think there’s a decent chance people will go with DeSantis instead — and *if* Trump then runs as third party, he’ll spoil that vote and hand Dems a win.
@chucker @AccordionBruce @georgetakei Like I said trump was polling 30% in 2016 among conservatives. still polling 30% now. DeSantis is a moron that copies anything Trump does. There is a possible way for him to win but I doubt it.
@BoRIStheWiZARD @chucker @AccordionBruce @georgetakei DeSantis is evil but not a moron. He just won a second term by a huge margin in popular vote, Trump didn’t even win popular vote when he won and he lost his re-election bid. DeSantis went to Yale and Harvard Law, he’s no dummy. He’s a total douche, but that’s not a negative for Republicans.
