I was talking about this with a few folks and thought that if Trump really wants to stay relevant, he should do the following, because it would be so unexpected, that well it just might work…
1) Switch parties and register himself as a Democrat and run as a Democrat.
2) Come out apologizing for his bad behavior for the past 6 years and make a symbolic token gesture of supporting some protected woke group like some LGBTQ+ organization.
3)Start using people’s prefered pronouns of he/him, or she/her, or they/them.
4) Attack the GOP establishment for being a terrible monster of racist, homophobic, anti-science, anti-climate change, anti-environment, anti-abortion, election deniers that created a toxic american culture, and anti-vaxxer, flat earther bumpkins Shame on “them” for continuing this charade.
5) Attack DeSantis as being the POS ringleader for this GOP circus.
6) Run as a moderate with a theme of “Making America United Again”.
7) Embrace climate change and talk about being carbon neutral. And propose that the Federal Emissions standard should be updated to conform to the much stricter California CAFE standards.

A lot of issues would be solved by Trump doing this
a) All the Jan 6 and corruption investigations led by mostly Democrats would suddenly stop
b) Trump could spend the next 4 years selling his merchandise and brand to much larger audience than for the past 6 years….Which is what he essentially did anyway.
c) We would see a lot of far right winger’s head explode and we would see a lot of far left winger’s hypocrisy once all the calls to lock him up stop once he is Democrat.
And the rest of us get to see the entertainment value of Trump successfully trolling the majority of the population and just how dumb many Americans are.
