There are plenty of scenarios by which someone other than Trump becomes the Republican nominee, beginning with various acts of God.
One big problem for the Republican aspirants is that if Trump is prevented by chicanery from being the nominee, a critical portion of his millions of voters will stay home, thus depriving any other candidate of victory.
Despite his many legal woes, Trump could win, less because he is broadly popular himself than because Biden is so unpopular.
Biden's approval rating there is a mere 38%, a number that when suitably translated spells J-I-M-M-Y C-A-R-T-E-R. The point is that Trump will not be running by himself.
"The people who really run the United States of America," Anton wrote, "Have made it clear that they can't, and won't, if they can help it, allow Donald Trump to be president again."
Who are those people? Mostly Democrats, yes, but really, it's a bipartisan, deep-state consensus, a uniparty assumption that Trump, being an existential threat to their continued existence must be kept from political power by any means necessary.
It is curious, as Anton also points out, that for all the fury directed at Trump the individual, the real target of deep state animus is not Trump himself but his supporters, his "Base." Trump was right when he said "They're not after me. They're after you. I'm just standing in the way." Anton got to the nub of the issue when he observed that "Anti-Trump hysteria is in the final analysis not about Trump. The regime can't allow Trump to be president not because of who he is, but because of who his followers are."
