The poll without Trump shows how much of a cult of personality the GOP is now. Trump, Jr. is in second and he has never even run for office. I bet he runs in the future.

I think it's very possible the 2024 GOP primary ends up being a dud & Trump wins easily thanks to a combination of the base still loving him & other contenders being complete cowards. He's already over 50%, so even if a consensus non-Trump candidate emerges it might be too late. pic.twitter.com/escEDYL1Qa

Why we’re still stuck in Trump’s world. The GOP electorate & the nature of the places they represent push party leaders toward timidity. Until they discover the fortitude to defy the incentives, Trump’s neuroses will dominate our politics.
