The argument is that Trump sometimes reins in the Republican base’s most conspiratorial and anti‑institutional pushes (e.g., Florida’s bid to end broad vaccine mandates), and that his exit could unleash these impulses. Two forecasting cues are highlighted: where the base resists the leader and how the Right’s media ecosystem sets tomorrow’s priorities. The result is a post‑Trump GOP potentially more extreme, not less. — This flips a common assumption by suggesting party radicalization may worsen without Trump, reshaping expectations for policy, elections, and institutional conflict.
