I feel like it's almost a rhetorical question.  And Trump hinted in his recent interview with Hugh Hewitt that Republicans might not be able to count on his support of a non-Trump nominee.  In response to Hewitt's question, Trump indicted that his position is the same as it was back in 2016, when he was asked the question during a primary debate. Trump, you'll recall, refused to pledge his support to the nominee if it was someone other than him.  He said it would depend on whether he deemed the process "fair."   Of course, we all know that if Donald loses out to say, Ron Desantis or Nikki Haley, he will claim the process was rigged and likely take his campaign in the direction of a third-party run just so he an fracture the GOP vote and cost them  a victory.

I'm rooting very hard for a successful nomination campaign for Mr Trump but I honestly don't see him winning if the field is narrowed to just him and Desantis.  However, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see him sabotage Desantis if the Florida governor wins the nomination. Mr Trump never goes down easy, even if he has to lie about the process being rigged.  However, in this case, Republicans may very well rig the process against Trump, much the way the Dems rigged the nomination process in favor of Hillary and against Bernie Sanders. Either way, if Trump loses, look for him to cse Republicaans to pay the price.

What do you think?  Do you think the twice-impeached , disgraced ex-President will play nice and support whoever wins the nomination  or will he run interference to help the Democrats ?
