I think this lines up with the primary schedule so that should make this an interesting affair.

Trump could clench the nomination in March, then get disqualified from running in May. The GOP will have to slap together a quick Desantis, Pence, or Cruz campaign with zero cash, while Trump fights the disqualification in the appellate courts.

It's worse: If Trump is the nominee you just know he's going to spend all the campaign dollars on lawyers for his various trials. He'll do his usual tour of the states doing his rallies but exactly zero dollars will make their way to downstream candidates. He's going to cost them the presidency, the house, and the senate.

At least I hope so.
