The Donald needs to play the part: It's important to take a cold, hard look at why Trump lost in 2020, and why he'll probably lose in 2024 if he continues on his current path

“and will never be a NeverTrump. I voted for the man twice and will gladly do so again if he wins the nomination.”
So he ADMITS being a NeverTrumper. Good enough for me to move to the next thread.

Trump needs to do what the author said.
The author said “Here’s my advice: read the audience, play the part, and make the sale.”
This is good sales advice and getting what you want.
Trump doesn’t follow the advice given by the author. The same name calling like he did in the past doesn’t work. He needs to adjust.
Trump doesn’t learn from past mistakes.

You can thank Trump for ceding authority to Birx and Fauci for allowing the COVID farce to spin out of control... which led to mail in voting.
This distortion of the truth, lacking in context, brought to you by the Deep State, DNC, GOP-E, and NeverTrumpers everywhere!

Flooding the “elections” with ballots rather than votes is why he lost. He won among those who voted. In 2024, he needs to gather as many ballots as possible. That will take money, since Soros & Suckerberg are funding ballots on the other side.

"The 2020 election was close because people were tired of Trump's behavior. "
NO! I voted for him twice because I want him the way he is, not some mealy-mouthed dumb cluck who sits in the corner like a puppy with his tail between his legs, and lets the media, and the Democrat party walk all over him. We don't need a gutless wonder. The GOP already forced that type on us for ages.
Personally, after everything that's been thrown at Trump, his family, his political supporters, etc., for the past 7+ years, and the shit that is still being thrown at him, I think he deserves to say whatever he wants, whenever he wants.
Anybody that believes that Joe Biden got the highest number of "legal electoral votes", of any Presidential candidate in the history of this country, all because of Trump's behavior, needs to have their head examined.

RE: So he ADMITS being a NeverTrumper
I don’t see how you can make that conclusion from these statements of the author :
“I must state that I am not, have never been, and will never be a NeverTrump“
“ I voted for the man twice and will gladly do so again if he wins the nomination”
If you take these statements at face value, your conclusion should be the OPPOSITE of what you wrote.

So, you feel uncomfortable with the name calling, it offends you?
Stop and think why?
The sheep would much rather have the sheepdog cash in his fangs, spray paint himself white, and go, “Baa.”

Unfortunately, the election was close enough to be stolen — and it probably was
No way that the election numbers were that close. No matter what number Trump pulled in, the democrats were going to figure out a way to get bigger numbers, by cheating or election fraud.
Trump pulled in a number bigger than any president in history, but, that number was going to be the target that democrats would surpass, and no matter what the number, even if Trump got 90 million, Biden would 'get' 95 million.
The election was, for certain, stolen. It was stolen, not because it was a close election, but because no matter what Trump got, Biden would get more, no matter what.
There is no 'probably' about the election having been stolen. If was 100% stolen; no freaking doubt about it.
Every battle-ground state, where Trump was leading with good numbers by the end of election night, was eventually going to be 'won' by Biden through huge fraudulent vote counts.
Counting 'votes' into the next late morning hours, would yield a lot more votes for Biden. That's not the way to run any election. Those late vote counts were certain to allow the fraudulent votes to come in, and there was no oversight of the counting. That's not Trump's fault, and it was always going to result in Biden winning where necessary in order to steal the election.
With oversight of the election votes and the vote counters, there will be less of a chance to have the election stolen next time. And, voter ID is a must, because, without it, anybody can vote, including illegal aliens and the walking dead, and the fictitious voters, and those who no longer qualify in a state because they've moved out of state or were dead before the election.
As time passes, people have a tendency to forget what really occurred, and the writer above has that tendency.

You can eliminate all forms of voter fraud, and close the borders. But if the majority of people who
legally vote decide to kill the Constitution, there is no other option than a national divorce.
Soon the Democrats won’t need to cheat to say in power indefinitely.

Just a party hack, or would have voted for Trump in the Primary. No shortage of those types, sadly.

Trump is the only incumbent President who lost when he received more votes in the his re-election. Trump got 11 million more votes in 2020 than in 2016 —74 million compared to 63 million. A 17.4% increase.
Trump won 17 of the 18 bellwether counties. Truth: Trump won in a landslide. The election was stolen.

Unfortunately, there are many who don’t think like you. I know of several friends and colleagues who tell me that they stayed home in 2020 rather than vote for either Biden or Trump ( mostly because they don’t like the way he talks or demean others ).
It might be a very superficial reason. Unfortunately, such folks exist by a huge number.
