If Trump doesn't win the 2024 nomination, it'll be because a majority of
GOP primary voters preferred someone else. Not "the party", not "the elites" or "the establishment", but ordinary
voters. So it must be all of us other primary voters who must be "taught that lesson" by this 30%. But exactly what is that lesson we're going to be taught for future elections? That we must vote for whichever future candidate (obviously not Trump) Loomer and her friends chooses to support in
future elections? That the rest of us must subordinate
our preferences to those of a self-admitted minority? I don't think so....
Truth is, I don't think 30% of the GOP will sit out the 2024 election if Trump isn't the nominee. It'll be some smaller percentage -- perhaps still enough to swing the election -- but not 30%. So personally, I'm just going to call the bluff of those electoral blackmailers, and vote for the most conservative candidate I believe can win. And that won't be Trump.
