He's been on the decline since the failed presidential bid in my opinion. He's pushing farther left and becoming more uncompromising in his rhetoric, driving his base but alienating independents and moderates. He focused his campaign on abortion, gun confiscation, and the power grid when Texas voters cared more about border security and economy. He gambled by playing to national progressives for presidential primary support and donations, but now he's left with no office to seek and a record of losing. He's a "superstar loser" as The Atlantic put it. It will be interesting to see how it all pans out, but I'm not too hopeful he'll accomplish much beyond celebrity fundraising. I'd be happy to be wrong on this though.
