Don't nominate a long-serving establishment politician
Nominate a candidate with charisma
Focus on the economic message and actually appeal to non college-educated whites (that better describes Trump's demographic than WWC)
Nominate someone without a lot of baggage
Never try expand the map, just focus on getting to 270, and make sure your 'firewall' is a firewall
Get the base excited for your candidate
Either full-heartedly defend free trade and offer an alternative economic narrative, or better yet, abandon free trade and have an economic message that appeals to working people
Focus on the issues and show how Trump is bad there, not on how Trump or the Republican candidate is bad personally
