A number that makes them the biggest and deciding voting block within the party. To me it seems quite likely they go for the next incediary populist in the next primaries. And so do party members who eye these votes and imho will keep pursuing them.
If it were a death knell, this number would have to be way lower than 45%. I get polls are often pretty questionable these days, but if anything the real number probably is higher than lower.
You misunderstand. The attitudes and beliefs won't change, but Trump is a nonviable entity at this point. Emulating him is as well. The GOP would flat out prohibit him from being in their primary henceforth. That's what I meant in that regard. The voters will remain the voters, but they won't have Trump, or a Trump clone, to vote for.
