I think the GOP has no real desire to win. Look at some of our “front runners” — Pence? Cruz? Christie?
The party base totally rejects those guys. And so the party pushes those guys forward. That will probably help Garrett Newsome become president in 2024.
“Look at some of our “front runners” — Pence? Cruz? Christie?”
For Pence, that’s by default after 4 years as VP. Always happens.
For Christie, he’s just a toy that the media plays with to anger our side he (and all like him) have no support in the party, only in the media and only to anger us.
For Cruz, he did everything needed to sound conservative (3 prayer breakfasts, every day, during campaign season (only), etc.) - votes good, but lives on some planet than his voters...and now we’re all seeing it.
Gavin not Garrett, Newsom not Newsome.
But yes, I agree, 100% he is the 2024 Democratic candidate for President, and a lot of Republicans will help him, behind the curtain if not openly.
