With all of that going on I was almost surprised to read that former GOP pollster superstar (now shunned by most of the GOP base) Frank Luntz, is worried about this country being torn asunder. Of course, not by any of the Biden or Democrat scandals, just by the possibility of Donald Trump becoming the 47th President of the United States.
He vented right here about it, and I almost had trouble taking a nap after reading his concerns.
Almost.
“I now have to acknowledge that it is a distinct possibility that Donald Trump could be elected president – I did not believe that one year ago,” Luntz told [The Sydney Morning Herald’s Latika] Bourke. In the interview, published Monday, Luntz argued that Trump’s domestic opponents and the way the court cases against him have been handled have dealt Trump back in and given him a real shot at winning another general election.
“I did not believe that the search of Mar-a-Lago would be handled so badly, I did not believe that the indictment of him in New York would be handled so badly,” Luntz argued….
Luntz could not and would not stop there.
Luntz then explained to Bourke that Trump’s positioning in the 2024 race is an existential threat to U.S. democracy and even went so far as to quantify the odds of the U.S. breaking apart.
Frank’s main concern is that he now sees a pathway, albeit slim, for Trump to not only win the nomination but to win the election to regain the Presidency in 2024. Back in the good ole days of 2021, Frank was incredibly confident that there was no way in Hades that Trump could regain the Oval Office. However, now Luntz is having night sweats, as he projects the odds to at least 15 percent that the Donald could be sworn in on January 20th, 2025.
Quite frankly the way that Joe Biden and the Democrats are handling everything nationally, you could probably run Ronald Reagan in his current condition against Joe Biden—and 70 percent of Americans would think it’s a vast improvement.
This is one of the reasons why my colleague Scott Hounsell has been saying for months now, on the RedState VIP Chat, that the Democrats are going to slow roll Ole Joe out before the primaries. (BTW, if you are NOT a VIP subscriber you can save 50% today by using the code SAVEAMERICA and never miss a show where the woke censors can ban us.)
So, when will Frank reveal if he has the same fear that the country will be torn apart, if Joe Biden and the Democrats are not held accountable? Your guess is probably as good as mine, and I know I’m not going to hold my breath waiting for that to happen.
Now, I know I’m not a fan of everything that Donald Trump does but I don’t live in the perpetual fear that the orange man is going to tear the country apart. I think the people who are willing to look the other way at everything that Hunter Biden is doing, and shrug it off because the big guy and the little guy both have D’s after their names, are more of a danger to the Republic.
Maybe Frank will come around to that common sense thinking, before he gives himself a heart attack worrying about Donald Trump getting close to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue again as POTUS.
Let. It. Be. Torn.
They always manage to sound scared of him.
Let me change:Boden wiin8ng in 24 will tare the Country apart.
Freedom and socalist and marxist tyrany CAN NOT Coexist in the same place.
It’s already torn. .
……
Deep State will not allow it to happen.
Trump must win.
I would rather see Ron DeSantis become President for many reasons. But should Mr. Trump win again, a full-on revolt will provide a chance to brutally crush the American Left. They are sowing the wind--they may end up reaping the whirlwind.
Biden will win over 300+ EVs and win the popular vote in a landslide. Trump shouldn’t be running again even though he remains popular with the base.
It’s coming either way, and I’m sad. But also beyond furious that the Marxists have brought the USA to this point.
RE: Biden will win over 300+ EVs and win the popular vote in a landslide.
Can you explain to us why you believe this to be the case?
Nitwit Luntz is concerned about the optics only, not what the actual impact of the raid or indictment is in the long run.
Nothing matters but Ballots.
He’s confessing to being an insurrectionist.
RE: He’s confessing to being an insurrectionist.
What insurrection???
Well, it is getting close.
The insurrection that he’d participate in were Trump to be elected in a free, fair, legal and legitimate election.
Ditto
Richard Nixon did not challenge the Chicago vote fraud which bought John Kennedy the election because he said he didn’t want to divide the country. Look where that’s gotten us.
The Republican Party routinely bends over for a bunch of sick, perverted, fascist wackos because they’re afraid it might disrupt the country. Look where that’s gotten us
Nothing to be concerned about. WHY? It's ALREADY TORN and DIVIDED by the LEFT, the RINOs, and the RACE BAITERS!
