Good post and interesting question...


...I think it's unlikely that he'll run again for multiple reasons. He will be the kingmaker in 2022 and 2024 and likely a very powerful one -- probably more powerful than if he were the candidate himself.

Noem, DeSantis and Pence would be the 2024 Republican frontrunners right now, IMO, based on what my RWNJ compatriots are saying, and they'd all have backing from Trump and Trump supporters. That would have been the case before the last week's events, as well, but these picks also align with your theory about how the past week might shape future elections. Anyone who is perceived to have crossed Trump has no chance.

As an aside, I think there is zero chance that Trump is convicted in a Senate trial if one even occurs, which is unlikely, IMO. So, he would be eligible to run if he wanted to. He'd be most likely to run if the left keeps coming after him financially, legally, etc. If they leave him alone (ha ha), he's more likely to sit it out in 2024.
