It'd be a toss-up at that point, depending on who they put up before the election. Maybe Nikki Haley could actually win again Biden? The other non-candidates that ran during the primaries don't seem like they'd fare well. That'd be hilarious if the party most opposed to women's rights were to get the first female president in office. Losing Trump would be a speedbump for Conservatives though, they're moving towards trying to take America down the road of a theocracy, I'm not sure that losing Trump would really stop that, they're pretty much committed to making it happen at some point.

I really feel trump’s organization would fall apart without his authoritarian grasp on the party. None of them are ruthless enough to take his place, base enough to speak to his base, and foolish enough to believe they’re right.
