Is Rubio okay with it? Jeb? Cruz? Cain? Carson? Kasich?

Any of them might have won with the foreign help Trump accepted.

A big part of Trump’s appeal was his cultish personality. It roused the sleeping base that wouldn’t have been energized by Jeb, Cruz, Rubio, who would have run general campaigns similar to what Mitt Romney did.

Along with Russian help, it was Trump’s rhetoric and speaking directly to the angry, white “forgotten” conservatives that got him in office.
