I also assume their backup plan, if she loses, is to just stymie Trump again like they did with his first term (endless lawfare, impeachments, etc.). Keep a lid on MAGA for four years and then go back to business as usual and run Newsome vs. some miscellaneous GOP schmuck/foil.

Only problem they might have with that is if Trump is cagey enough to have learned form his mistakes first term and outflank them. With Musk, Vivek, Gabbard, and RFK Jr. on board, I feel things might be more interesting this time around. Enough to actually change anything? No idea.

Don't forget the grooming of J.D. Vance for a presidential run in 2028. Trump's a lame duck on Inauguration Day, so a transition to Vance (or other) is inevitable and in Trump's (and America's) interest as both a triumph and a legacy.
