Trump is/was strongly disliked by more than just the "left". There are many


right leaning voters (or more traditional R voters, or those who rarely vote D or however one wants to define them) who cannot support Trump. Are there enough of those to overcome other factions? Honestly, I don't know. I happen to think "yes" on a national level, but likely not these days to overcome the more narrow party nomination process.

You are right that any ultimate R nominee will be savaged from the left -- just as the D nominee will be savaged from plenty of hateful, ridiculous rhetoric from the right. Water is wet. I'd only suggest to keep in mind that it is a mistake to really think that there is a lot of real disgust about Trump et al from perspectives other than some "far left".
