Trump has totally changed the party in the near term, and he would expect the next Rebublican nominee to be in the Tom Cotton/Tucker Carlson mold. Someone he would not support.
Kara was somewhat dubious to that assertion, but that was what he said.

Until any of the Lincoln Project members apologize for their roles in the Bush administration, specifically when it comes Iraq, it's pretty hard to accept their "reformed conservative" gimmick with any kind of sincerity.
