  1. Maybe, but he would definitely lose the General election.

  2. Republican voters started leaving the GOP in droves shortly after Trump's insurrection on the Capitol on January 6. Several states reported a shift in voter registrations, with many voters deciding to leave the Republican Party. An analysis of January voting records found that at least 140,000 Republicans decided to leave the party across 25 states. A recent report from NBC News found more than 12,000 Republican voters in PA leaving the party after January 6, while NC and AZ saw at least 8,000 and over 9,000, respectively. Kimrey Rhinehardt was one of the many NC voters that decided to leave the GOP following the Capitol riot, describing it as "the straw that broke the camel's back." "What happened in D.C. that day, it broke my heart," said Juan Nunez, a 56-year-old an Army veteran from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. "It shook me to the core." More than 10,000 Republicans have left the party in AZ, where the state GOP has moved to censure Gov. Doug Ducey, former Senator Jeff Flake and Cindy McCain for perceived disloyalty to the former president. "The Arizona GOP has just lost its mind," said Heidi Ushinski, a 41-year-old Arizona voter who switched her affiliation to the Democratic Party. Lifelong Repub Michael Taylor, the mayor of Sterling Heights, Michigan, had already voted for Biden in the Nov. 3 election before changing his registration after the state GOP helped push conspiracy theories that fed the insurrection. "There was enough before the election to swear off the GOP, but the incredible events since have made it clear to me that I don't fit into this party," Taylor said. "It wasn't just complaining about election fraud anymore. They have taken control of the Capitol at the behest of the president of the United States, and if there was a clear break with the party in my mind, that was it."
