See that's where I disagree. If the base is the extreme right, then yes. But most Republicans are not extreme right, and Rubio is a far better candidate if you're a regular ol' republican.
And Trump will probably be relevant in the next couple of primaries, but you watch his numbers drop significantly in that process. There's no way he's going to be considered a serious candidate by most voters.
