My criteria is really based on how amiable the Trump-led GOP is to electing Ron Paul Republicans in the House and Senate. I'm not really a fan of Trump but if we can get strong Ron Paul candidates elected then that is a major win and makes his administration more tolerable.
The way I see it, there are a couple of tiers of Ron Paul candidates running this cycle
GOLD Tier
Eric Brakey (defeated in primary)
Matt Gurtler (advanced to GOP primary run off)
Nick Frietas (nomination convention is LIVE as we speak and should know results in hours)
Thomas Massie (won reelection no thanks to Trump)
SILVER Tier
Madison Cawthorn (won primary even when Trump endorsed opponent)
Nancy Mace (won primary)
Dr Manny Sethi (primary is yet to be decided)
Kat Cammack (primary yet to be decided)
How these races shake out will greatly influence my perception of the "trump GOP"
