Exactly. For a man who claimed he started a movement and it was bigger than just him, he's totally lost the plot.
Like many here I voted for him twice and donated many times but I've had enough. After 2020, I wrote here what I thought he needed to do to rehabilitate his image so he could appeal to enough voters to win again in 2024. He's done the exact opposite. He's on a path self immolation.
The midterms suggest he's on the wrong path but that's not his take away. He's blaming Republicans who won decisively and blaming Republicans he supported that lost.
Two years ago I was supportive of a 2024 bid but now I fear the primary will be all about stopping Trump in order to preserve a chance at victory.
Americans want the policies without the drama. They said that in 2020. They're saying it again in 2022 and he continues to bring the drama.
He just can't avoid the traps the Dems lay down for him. He takes their bait again and again. It's not about not fighting back, it's about fighting on your time table. It's why he lost in 2020 when he deserved to WIN. It wasn't "stolen" even though I'm sure there were efforts to give Dems the advantage. He gave it away. All Joe had to do was hide in his basement.
I am 100% certain that 2020 was stolen—the turnout numbers were just wacky and impossible.
I do not like to blame the victim—but President Trump failed to stop it when he had the power to do so.
DeSantis crushed voting fraud in Florida.
Going forward it has to be about results, not personalities.
