‘He won’t win another national election’: Wall Street Journal tells Republicans to ditch Trump
Independent ^ | 16/2/21 | Josh Marcus

Nancy Pelosi slams Mitch McConnell for ‘disingenuous’ Trump impeachment speech

The conservative editorial board of the Wall Street Journal on Sunday drew a line in the sand and warned Republicans to leave Donald Trump behind if they want to retake the White House in 2024.

“Mr. Trump may run again, but he won’t win another national election,” they wrote in an opinion piece. “The country is moving past the Trump Presidency, and the GOP will remain in the wilderness until it does too,” they added.

The article argues that president was already unpopular, never having an approval rating of more than 50 per cent and already having lost the election before the events of the attack on the Capitol, but to run again would even further weaken the party.

Your answer is hilarious because I read the title and thought, “YCKMA.” That would translate as you, can, kiss...

I would think every time Trump may think he doesn’t want to run again and put up with the BS..... he reads an article like this and is ready to prove them wrong.

They said he would not win against Hillary either.
Trump has 80 million Trump voters.
Ignore them and me at your own risk.

The Murdoch boys are dictating to one of their entities, the once venerable Wall Street Journal! Their (Murdoch’s) hate for the USA is palpable!

They said he wouldn’t win the first one.

Second one was stolen.

I suppose the “conservatives” over that at the WSJ think Romney, Lez Cheney or possibly Porky McCain fit the conservative bill for the GOP.

The Wall Street Journal - isn’t that a newspaper or something that people used before the internet?

President Trump is the only thing keeping the GOP's head above water at this point. They better pray that he doesn't bolt and start the MAGA Party.

The only people still waving pom poms for bush league Republicans is the disgraced peddle file gang sporting their Lincoln logs at under age boys.

“‘He won’t win another national election’: Wall Street Journal tells Republicans to ditch Trump”

Regarding the title, they are right. Not because Trump is unpopular, it’s because of voter fraud. If that’s not fixed, then there will never be a genuine Patriotic conservative in the WH again. They might let a Romney get close, maybe even win as he’d gladly let the DNC masters pull his strings just to get all the attention.

Trump redefined the Presidency. I will not support anyone who isn’t like Trump or better. But then there’s the election fraud issue.....

And the establishment continues to prove they do not get it..

This wasn’t, isn’t and never will be about TRUMP.

It’s MAGA and the GOP has shown it never wanted it, and the American People do.. the GOP cannot move past TRUMP because it won’t win without embracing MAGA and the establishment won’t do it.

The GOP cannot win a national election without him, because their betrayal has cost them tens of millions of loyal dedicated voters, and they just don’t see it.

GOPe has shown us votes don’t matter and they don’t care... they allowing of a flagrant theft on a election is unforgivable.

I remember back in 1960 when Nixon lost to Kennedy. The media and Democrats said his career was over. When he lost the the California governor race in 1962 they said "now his career is really over". Yet in 1968 Nixon came back and won two terms as President with the support of the "silent majority".

Ignore the pundits, they are seldom right.

The only thing worse for this country than the WSJ-backed candidates who lose presidential elections are the WSJ-backed candidates who win.

Let’s take a look at the WSJ’s circulation, look at the GOPs member leakage rate and ask ourselves a question: Are you going to believe them, or your lying eyes?
