Trump’s biggest problem, and risk is being perceived as being just another politician. There is no doubt that he needs to win over a good bit of the nevertrumps, but if he goes too far establishment and stops being authentic, he becomes viewed as just another establishment politician and loses all he has built.
I trust he will navigate the waters, but that’s his biggest risk.. not some off the cuff comment, but being perceived as inauthentic or just another establishment player. Either of those happen and Trump’s support would crater fast.

Trump has never held office, so there is a slim to none chance of his being considered a member of any Establishment. The actual GOPe RINOs covertly and/or overtly can’t stand him. I wouldn’t worry about Trump ever relinquishing his outsider status, and whatever small accommodations to the RINOs Trump must make now in order to get elected, will disappear in a puff of smoke on November 8th. Trump is a man of the People. That’s us.
