Harder, but not that much so. He’ll still have essentially put Cruz and Rubio out of our collective misery. Kasich hasn’t shown any ability to gain traction and holding your own state isn’t that big of a hurdle (though Rubio shows that to be enough of one).

The GOP is entering a bunch of winner take all states, and if Trump crushes it excluding OH, he’s still going to go into those next states with a commanding lead over everyone else.

It is inevitable, and the GOP are coming around to this realization. They’ll be into the 4th stage of Trumpism tomorrow, and by accepting by the weekend. Even NRO. Just you watch.

Personally I doubt it. Most Republicans realize they can’t explicitly become a white nationalist party without getting crushed in the general election, and right now McConnell is in survival mode, just trying to figure out how to retain his Senate majority. But we’ll see.
