'The GOP under Donald Trump's thumb is now positioning itself outside of the constitutional order,' the Maryland congressman said Sunday.
Opinions vary on why Trump remains so dominant in the Republican party. FiveThirtyEight CEO Nate Silver notedSunday that"usually when presidential candidates lose elections, their parties look for a fresh face in the new cycle. But the evidence pretty clearly shows that Trump is different."
"Trump has been very successful capturing people through fear, through prejudice, through emotions," said David Schultz, a politics professor at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota, in a Friday interview with."The Republican Party is Trump now. Without Trump, I don't think there is a Republican Party."
Trump is"the best-known Republican politician" whether he is liked or not, agreed Matthew Dickinson, a politics professor at Middlebury College in Vermont, also speaking to Al Jazeera."Most of the Republican establishment [doesn't] like him—your electoral fortunes are tied to the ability of Donald Trump to mobilize voters on your behalf."
