So who do you think will be the Republican nominee? [View all]

I used to think Trump's ego would not let him quit, but now I'm thinking that same ego would rather withdraw than lose. And it sure as hell looks like he's going to lose. I realize that polls this far out from the GE are pretty much meaningless, but a 70% unfavorable rating? DAMN! So, who do you think his replacement might be?
