Yeah, we'll see. The problem is that Trump has a strong hold on the GOP base so he can win the nomination and GOP representatives in congress are worried about crossing him in case his base challenges them in their primaries.
Ron DeSantis is the obvious alternative that's still Trump-like in delivery so maybe he can soak up enough support.
There is also the worry of what happens if he runs and loses in 2024 again or even what Election Day 2024 would be like.
