There are a lot of people who thought Trump did a good job as president, but don’t want him running again. In politics, four years is an eternity. He is old news. The Desantis, Lakes etc. are the new face of the party. If Trump is the candidate in 2024 the GOP loses and probably coughs up both houses because of his drag on down ballot races. Even a lot of people who liked what he did while in office are tired and wary of the circus, he brings to town when he comes.
How could anyone feel sorry for Trump when he’s consistently his own worst enemy? Which is saying something because he has alot of enemies. All he had to do was move on from 2020 like a normal leader and regroup with the slightest bit of strategy. Avoid retarded nonsense like letting Jan 6 goofballs in Viking hats invade the House floor and keep classified documents out of his own friggin basement. Sure it would help if Republicans weren’t so easily tagged in suburbia as the party of “no day after pills for teenage rape victims” but it did not have to be this hard and he can’t own it for a split second.
Trump: “Well, I think if they win, I should get all the credit. If they lose, I should not be blamed at all.”
lol come on man. Imagine an NFL coach saying that.
He’ll be 80, and if he somehow won, he could only serve 1 term,and we’d be back to figuring out the next candidate.
And meanwhile we’d keep losing elections, like we have ever since Trump eeked out the presidential victory in 2016.
Better to pick a popular, articulate person who could serve two terms and achieve something.
If Trump runs, the Dems will win in 2024 regardless of who actually wins the nomination. If Trump is the nominee, a lot of people who may like what he has done but don’t want another 4 years like his last term will either not vote or vote for someone else. If anyone but Trump is the nominee, Trump will undercut them at everyone opportunity, and all of the Trump cultists will sit the election out. Either way, we lose.
