Trump is clearly a lock for the R nomination, but won’t win in general.

I think his nomination could be torpedoed by a conviction. I also think it's too far out to prognosticate.
I also think that the overturning of Roe v Wade will drive female and youth turnout. Hopefully the voting polity will see that not only a President but a Senate vote matters.
I agree the Trump is a poor fit for the general election. He's got a high floor but a low ceiling.
I'm also hoping that paying into Social Security with no guarantee of payback will turn enough young voters to the D side, if they weren't already. The chump and Moscow Mitch have been waving deleting "entitlements" around like crazy. Well, were. Election of another R is going to bring that rhetoric to front burner again, more so than what the Bastard of Bakersfield® (McCarthy) is trying for.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
