The Trump people really can't stand government, and they are just channeling their anger out through a counter-intuitive outlet.
Rand's Black Lives Matter campaign was a disaster but he saved face and will be a US Senator not running for re-election in 2020. If he makes the appropriate messaging adjustments, he can prove how he is the most anti-government of all the candidates and win over the Trump base of 2016.
I've been reading people suggest Amash, and while I do love the work he is doing, he hasn't shown any ability to expand outside of a libertarian base. He is no more charismatic than Rand, and Rand is still a much higher profile political figure.
To accomplish this, we should probably want Trump to lose the nomination and then obviously the GOP nominee to lose to a Democrat. That way the idea of an anti-establishment figure being the ideal nominee will still be alive and the current Trump base will still be angry and exploitable.
