Just studied the latest polls though (regarding who should be presidential candidate). Trump leads each and every one of them by a significant margin. Meaning, as of now even if it were someone else than Trump, it would be a president of his grace. And since that is still so, I declare every hope that someone actually preferrable could be the candidate as pure wishful thinking.
Yeah, that is my concern as well. I don't want Trump to run again, but if he doesn't he will definitely take on the mantle of kingmaker. I don't know how this is going to play out, hopefully we get some change in that within the next two years. Ironically, I think the Dems are doing as much to keep Trump in the forefront as anyone. If they stopped referencing him every minute in an attempt to tie the entire GOP to him they'd go some way towards reducing his clout. They are, IMO, literally achieving the opposite of their stated goal by making him the face of the GOP.
