4. Dishonest, But Still

I think that this move right here is very interesting. He was kicked out of office by a deeply pro-Trump electorate, in a state that gave Trump one of the highest primary vote percentages in 2024. So he might be willing to break from his party in the next year knowing there is nothing else going to happen.

This type of behavior is the top reason why I would not be totally shocked if Trump is removed after a blue wave though I would be somewhat surprised if it really happens. Because a lot of Republicans on the inside secretly hate Trump. If they have the chance to vote him out in a Senate hearing, a few might take it, especially considering how the vote is structured.
