Exactly, his best play would have been as the guy that gives insight into Trump's true personality and tells horror stories of his time in the oval office.
I honestly don't think the unswayable MAGA block is as big as many believe. It's sizable, probably 15-20% of the GOP base, but I really believe there's a path to winning without them and considering the fact that it plays better to moderates it likely has a better chance in the general.
Everyone seems to think the only way to beat Trump is to try to steal his voters that aren't voting for anyone else.
