Trump expresses deep sorrow for Ted. He becomes the unifier, healer, and savior of the Republican Party. He cuts a deal to put John Kasich on the ticket, which I think he plans to do anyway. The primary is over. They barnstorm the country together... maybe they even drag Rubio along... on a Unity Tour.
One night, Megyn Kelly strongly admonishes a guest who "goes too far" in attacking Trump unfairly. Trump calls in live to her show the next night, and thanks her for her fairness and invites her to Mar-a-lago for a live tour and interview in two nights. The upcoming special dominates media coverage for 48 hours.
At the interview and tour, he's charming, she's "tough but fair" and they make up. Melania is so pleased, she hugs and kisses Megyn on the cheek. The special is a national sensation, scoring the highest ratings in a decade. Megyn Kelly becomes the Woman Who Reached Donald Trump... just like in a Harlequin Romance Novel. His ratings among women soar, because he's just like their husbands... rough around the edges but capable of amazing goodness when a good woman has the helm.
You're thinking of this election as 1980's style politics. It's not. It's a reality show with really big stakes. And Trump is better at it than anyone else by a country mile.
I’ve already got this played out. Here’s what you’re missing.

Wow...I really like this scenario! Made for TV! Think I will use it in my next pot boiler!
Your tale is clever and remotely possible, but can we edit out the Megyn part, please?!
Her snark is too much, her love fest with Michael Moore and Michelle Fields and every Trump hater, is too much to stomach.
