I have my own skepticism about a second Trump presidency. Part of me just can't wait for the "I told you so" moment after four completely disastrous years with Biden at the helm, although if by some miracle, a GOP Congress managed to fix some of the mess, Biden and the Dems are almost certainly going to take credit for it.
I have little doubt - Trump CAN beat anyone that runs in 2024. Who do the Dems HAVE? Warren? Buttigieg? Who? No one who isn't already tainted by the mess of Biden's White House. Trump has been out of office a year and a half and he can STILL draw the crowds. Could the same thing be said of Obama?
But we also saw four years under Trump of non-stop vitriol and hatred from the left, and it got worse every year and it is STILL getting worse. His existence puts them in a frenzy. They wasted our damned time with Russia - and then Ukraine. Ukraine. Dear God, they impeached over total bullchit with Ukraine. Then they impeached him in a rushed closed situation because they had to get it done before he left office ANYWAY, which is like firing someone before they can quit.
They are STILL LOSING THEIR CHIT over Trump. They won't stop if he gets elected again.
I know, you think damn, you're just chickening out. Well, see - the problem with some people in politics is, they convince themselves they are the ONLY ONE WHO CAN FIX THINGS. And it's not so. Honestly, we have one of the oldest heads of state the modern world has ever seen - and Trump himself is 76 now. He is ALSO old. I don't mind if the next President is someone heavily supported by Trump ----
But maybe it's time we find someone younger we can have the same enthusiasm for. Because if Trump is the next President - can anyone pick up when he leaves?
I don't think it's chickening out on Trump. SOONER or later - someone ELSE must take up his mantle. It has to happen, or we will get more GOP establishment candidates.
