Here's an intelligent take by
@SykesCharlie
. If Trump were to lose to DeSantis/others, it's likely he'd try to burn down the GOP. As Charlie puts it, "They may be done with him, but he is not done with them." It would be fitting if DJT turned on the GOP.

(18,508 posts).... this is his primary skill that he has honed for a long long time. Once he sets his mind to destroy someone he is relentless and vehement until he has ground them up into dust.
The Republican't Party was warned if things take a bad turn with "The Donald" - he will them proceed to burn the Republican't Party to the ground.
His final stand will be to splinter the party and rip it to shreds. If the party leaders do not play the game by his rules - he will take his Fascist MAGA loonies and form a third party. So they can never win another election again for the foreseeable future.
The Red Wave that was promised - will be the bloodbath tRumpie has brought to the new Fascist Republican Party because they dumped and abandoned him. So his recourse is to turn that political party into a heap of burnt embers and ashes.
Worship your messiah,... or suffer the consequences.
They were sufficiently warned this would inevitably happen. But party leaders habitually gave their loyalties and allegiances to the Orange Fascist Jeebuzz. At this late date - all the possible exit doors have been welded shut.
Let the GQP bloodbath begin.

(13,985 posts)Even if he weren't vengeful, he's still between a rock and a hard place. He needs his candidacy alive in the minds of his Trumpies or they won't protect him anymore. If he's not the vehicle for their protest, they'll dump him just like he would dump them.
