The Republican Party will cease to be a political party and complete its transformation into a Trump family business. Even if Donald Trump loses the 2024 election, the Trump family will retain power over the Republican Party.
This means that even if Donald Trump were dead, in prison, or no longer around, the Trump family would still be in charge of the RNC. Political candidates who want to run as Republicans will need to be MAGA endorsed.
Future presidential candidates will be one of Trump. The family appears to be taking one of the two major political parties in the United States and turning it into part of the family business. The Trumps are abandoning the cheating game to pursue politics full time.
The Republican Party, as it has existed for over 100 years, will now be a branch of the Trumps.
