Before you throw a MAGA hat or a Let’s Go Brandon flag at me, let me make one thing perfectly clear. I voted for Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. If he is the nominee in 2024, I’ll vote for him again. But when we consider him in the context of the next election, we must employ the retrospectoscope, as I did months ago. After all, hindsight is 20/20. And, as Santayana said, “He who does not learn from history is doomed to repeat it.”

Thanks!

Yup, I’ll pass on the article, that’s my judgment!
There is no one better. Even Gov. DeSantis.
Synopsis:
DeSantis for president.
Hmmmm. This guy blames Fauci and Birx on Pence. I don’t remember Pence with them, I remember Trump. What could a VP do about it? Trump was the one who kept them.
Trump won. Discussion over.
I have news for this dope: An Ivy League lawyer turned career politician is the epitome of “The Swamp.” No thanks, dude.
What’s interesting to me is that “draining the Swamp” was never really a major goal of Trump. You never heard him talk about it until later in the campaign when he was running behind Clinton in the polls. It was sometime after Labor Day in 2016 when I first noticed this “drain the Swamp” theme in his campaign speeches and ads. I suspect some sharp campaign leader — perhaps Kellyanne Conway herself — did some great polling and focus group work and determined that this theme resonated strongly with independent voters.
FU Ted.
Trump is the current leader and choice.
He doesn’t want it, then Desantis is obvious...
This post has attracted quite a few GOPe cheese-eating, surrender monkeys. Go back to fluffing your Uniparty masters.
Arizona and Georgia are the only two that stand out to me … and that’s not going to be enough.
For better or worse, there’s no getting around the fact that Donald Trump set himself apart from Republican presidential contenders in recent decades with his strong appeal across the Rust Belt.
I like Trump and would like to see him be President a second time, but I think he may not have broad enough appeal to win again. I’ll vote for him if he gets the nomination, but at this early stage, I’d label myself a DeSantis supporter. Tentatively. Very tentatively.
Doesn't answer the question posed by the headline:
Why Donald Trump Should NOT Be the Republican Nominee
WHY?
Regards,
God, i agree with what he says about Pence, but the rest of this article is pure mental masturbation. Why do they constantly post this crap?
If Trump runs he’s got my vote.
Teddy “Squish” Cruz and the entire pack of RINOs will never get my vote.
What kind of 2016/2020 Trump voters have "fallen by the wayside," in your opinion?
Which voter groups have "lost faith" in Trump?
Who - having voted for Trump in 2020 - are now saying, "Nah, I wish that I hadn't voted for Trump now! Biden is doing a good job!"
Ridiculous!
Regards,
If Trump and Biden ran again today, you’d be shocked at how many suburban dingbat Karens would still vote for Biden. You know who they are because they’re the ones wearing masks 24 hours a day, getting a COVID booster every other week, and waiting on line for hours to get a COVID test when they have no symptoms whatsoever.
Mitt Romney, is that you?
Trump 2024.
I don’t think Biden is going to be the Democrat nominee for 2024. I don’t know who it will be, but it will give people who are fed up with Biden someone other than Biden to vote for. Trump had the good fortune to run against two of the worst Democrat candidates ever. The Democrats are bound to put up someone more formidable than those two.
