    Is there anyone else of note left in the race, I’ve not really been following? If one was the last competitor to trump, or the most popular of those left, I’d imagine it’d make a lot of sense to at least hold out to see what the supreme court says about Trump’s eligibility. I mean, given their political leanings I’d guess it’s almost certain they’ll find a way to say he’s not an insurrectionist or that it doesn’t matter, but in the event that they do rule him ineligible, the republicans would need another candidate and in her position I’d imagine she’d win the primary by default if she is still running in such a scenario

      Nah, it’s just her and Trump. On the dem side there seem to be a small number of people under the illusion that Biden doesn’t have the nomination secure.

      Trump will lose the election, full stop. Both Barrett and Roberts have repeatedly proven themselves to not be completely corrupted, or at least not reliably partisan.

      Even if one is compromised there’s no reason that owners of certain Justices might not actually want Haley over Trump.
