because I don't think any republican BUT Trump can win.

Trump has a cult. That cult will likely not switch to another Trump-lite republican.

They need that base of ignorant hateful people (deplorables) to have a chance.

But I think that base only turns out for Trump.

OTOH, Trump has alienated so many other people (never trumpers, all of us Democrats, many independents, young voters, etc, etc) that Koch is correct, Trump can not win either.

In fact, almost whatever the Repukes do now, We win the Presidency, the Senate and the House.

And maybe for a long time to come.
