I like Trump…a lot.

However his time is past, he was cheated (1 way or another out of the election) and it’s over. You are right about the women and let’s face it he will be too old.

Despite what some of his supporters here say, age DOES make a difference and he will be ..what? Almost 78 in 2024? That is too old.

Desantis is the ticket.

I have two general problems with DeSantis that don’t mean I’m bad-mouthing him:

1. He is an establishment Republican. He will generate no enthusiasm among politically disconnected voters the way Trump did.

2. If anything, he’s LESS electable than Trump. Which states did Romney lose in 2012 that DeSantis will win in 2024?

Trump made mistakes to be sure.

But you and the authors comment that the cheating is "over" is a far worse mistake.

My Dream of Dreams: Trump for President, DeSantis as VP in 2024. Trump is vindicated and wins easily if we can tamp down the fraud -- 2022 mid-terms may allow this if we take Congress, both houses.

Sometime between Jan 20 2026 and Jan 2027 Trump announces he is retiring to be a senior advisor to DeSantis who becomes President.

DeSantis runs as an incumbent, but one with two terms remaining, in 2030.

If we can not turn the country around and restore sanity in 12 years our descendants deserve whatever fate is in store for them.

And the EverTrumpers proved their hypocrisy again, by fully supporting Old Trump while denigrating electing Old Biden. They’ll have been the same age!

Being that Trump is Trump, he will have to be center stage. If he decides not to run, he will have to be the one to coronate the candidate.

Who other than Desantis do we have waiting in the wings? I for one like Rand Paul but he hasn’t gotten his last two campaigns off the ground.

I think Trump was the best President of my lifetime (and there have been a lot of Presidents in my lifetime) and if he were re-elected in 2024 and served a second term I'd be happy, but I have serious doubts as to whether that's in the realm of possibility. We saw how the Powers That Be managed to steal the election in 2020 for a corrupt senile loser. Who knows who the Democrat nominee will be in 2024 (unlikely to be Biden) but I can't see the Powers That Be letting Trump win again--they will have him Arkancided if need be.

DeSantis or Pompeo may be a better bet, although whoever is the Republican nominee will be demonized almost as much as Trump (if he or she is not a RINO).

I watched The Journal Editorial Report today. They are good on some topics but they are obsessed with the idea that Trump lost the election fair and square and should not claim otherwise.
