You just defined a “cult of personality” very well.

—> He did not fight his domestic enemies

Many are gone.

—> They are all still alive and well

Did you think he’d kill them?

—> His domestic enemies would not come to the table, much less make a deal. They killed him

He’s alive and well

I believe Trump is communicating for 2024 much the same way he did in 2016.

It’s not 2016 anymore. Trump isn’t an outsider. He’s a defeated former president who’s been on an endless losing streak since 2018.

DeSanctimonious? Let’s see Trump on that debate stage standing next to the most popular governor in the country as he’s reminded that while one man was fighting to keep Florida open, the other man handed the country over to Dr. Fauci.

I look for things to change even farther towards things that
enhance fake elections. jmo.

example..... voting by computer, hand held device, etc.
Let’s see, Aunt Mae hasn’t voted so lets cast her ballot
for her. Uncle Joe be out of pocket for a few weeks lets
see if we can cast a ballot in his name.

Trump is the only one who can…

He didn’t do any of this the first time he was president.

Why should we believe he’ll do this the next time?

Unless 2020 gets fixed there is no 2024 just like there was no 2022. Jesus Christ couldn’t get elected on the Republican ticket now that the cheating is perfected and the cheaters face no punishment. This time around they rubbed our face in it.

Unless the military steps in like they are doing in Brazil you will be living in the Democrats workers paradise from now on.

Ah yes a true believer, I would say you are a rare bird but you are not, many think as you but the many do not grasp the middle of the road types will not vote for Trump, nor will many Women nor the GenX and GenZ types as they have been programmed to run from Trump or the GOP..Brainwashing does work and well..The Midterms proved that out..Also if you are counting on the American voter to use common sense and logic you will be waiting a long time..

Trump knows what he’s the media is confused because he doesn’t follow the good old boy suck up game to the media and they don’t like it.
He’s proved he’s the best person for the job Biden and his DOJ will do anything to keep the Biden crime family out of prison.

Media approved

I believe the fix is currently in process. A multi stage process. Much of it is happening behind the scenes or is being hidden by the press which are the Marxist handmaidens. I am hopeful its soon coming to a resolution.

“No one else...”

That is loser talk. Who are you going to support beyond 24? Or what if the TrumpSwampJabs kills him before 24?

Also, Trump did absolutely nothing to drain the swamp when he was prez. In fact, he got politically naked and jumped into it, swimming with BigPharma and BigGovt.

“Where else are you going to go?”

Great. Now we are down to the Bush-era strategy. Hold you nose and vote R.

Just for the record, think it is silly to say Trump couldn't be re-elected because he has been "damaged." What a ridiculous assertion. Any "damage" done by the left will work to his advantage with Trump voters and many independents.

That said, I don't expect another Trump presidency.

He HIRED Wray and Barr! I think that alone will doom any rebid but I’ll vote for him!

Well, Mostly because McConnell told him they were the only ones who could be confirmed.

Trump seemed to think the government worked like a corporation, and people achieved high positions due to merit - so as long as he picked "experienced" people that the GOP leaders liked everything would be OK. He took a very long time to realize the GOP considered him and his movement to be a third party insurrection, and a bigger threat to the party's future than the Democrats.

Fact of the matter is 5 States 4 being Democrat States control the Presidental elections now. I personally do not see a resolution and can’t rely on the Courts as the Judicial branch is equally corrupt as the Executive and Legislative branches. What many seem to miss is the is not a battle between Right vs Left but a battle of Good vs Evil. Mankind is being overwhelmed with Evil and it blinds the to the truth.

Whatever VDH..... Trump is supposed to be in the White House now yet not one individual in authority with enough fortitude and integrity has stood up and challenged the totally bogus 2020 “results”.
Wonder why that is? Until the severe wrongs that were committed against the voting public are corrected and punishment meted out to all those responsible, positive forward movement in this country is impossible.

The McConnell’s, the McCainites, Billionaire Psychopaths and Thieves are funding a propaganda campaign to make people like you confused and demoralized.

Don’t be fooled, Trump’s support is at a fever pitch and growing.

One of many if you know where to look:

No one else is going come to the aid of the January 6th patriots who have been held as political criminals. No one else is going to dismantle the FBI. No one else is going to drain the swamp.

Then the Republican Party has failed. Badly. No one on the bench to pick up the mantle. That's sad, indeed.

I'm an Independent, so I won't have any input into who (or what) either the Republican or Democratic party put forth as candidate for US President. What I will do is assess both candidates, based on my personal sieve of excellence:

Given the hyperbole here and in the web sites across the aisle, my dream has a very, very small chance of happening.
