Trump may well wield a lot of power within Republican circles even after he steps down. He may run again or be a fund raiser for the next candidate. Ambitious republicans can’t (yet) afford to dump him.
I read an interesting article at the weekend that said his daughter, herself allegedly a future candidate, risks being ostracised by the influential New York social circles when the dust settles. Quite apart from restricting her social diary this might reduce her fundraising capacity.
However I think once the immediate election furore is over the Trumps will have other priorities to worry about in terms of business and lawsuits.
