If the elections are not rigged, I don’t see how Trump loses. If Trump, who has already proven himself to be good for the country, loses in honest elections, the country deserves whatever it gets.

I believe that you express the opinion of many fine folks hereabouts.

And respectfully, I don't agree.

For one thing, the electorate has changed. Many new (and low info) voters added to the rolls, and many of my vintage sadly have "gone west".

Trump has not helped himself, with childish internecine insults and name-calling, foolish statements such as he can end the Ukraine war in 24 hours, and apparently a refusal to participate in primary debates. He has an extraordinary talent for making political enemies from those whose support he critically needs.

I know GOPers who literally hate him as he just can't think before acting or speaking, and it's not within him to act diplomatically or presidential.

Trump has some achievements to report, but those only go so far with the low info voters. The Dems are experts at arguing off the point. Recall how Biden stressed unity?

If Trump gets the nom, and he very well might, I'll wager that the Dems and their allies do perpetual, non-stop references to "porn star hush money", "indicted", and other persuasive distractions from important (to you and I) issues such as economy, debt, China, borders and so forth.

I don't see how Trump wins the general, and it's mostly Trump's doing.

Oh, you mean a re-do of Trump's first campaign where the Dems threw the same crap at him, and he beat Hillary anyway. It's been 7 years they've been throwing hardballs at him. I'm surprised he got as much done as he did in his first four years. The scamdemic was deliberately created to shut everything down, while they planned on how to get rid of him in the 2020 election. I don't care what anyone says, China had the most to gain with Covid, and with getting rid of Trump. It's no coincidence that China's best friend Biden just happened to end up being the candidate, who never came out of his basement, but would get the highest popular vote of any Presidential candidate in the history of this country...even more than Obama. If anyone actually believes he got all those votes legally, they need to have their head examined. The 2020 election was a coup, nothing more.
