Trump will win the nomination. I don’t see how he will not. He has the biggest base of any Republican since Reagan (even bigger than Ronaldus Magnus). You can’t buy that and he would do well to focus on the general and stay out of the weeds, but he won’t.
However, there are some points in this article that I believe Trump needs to address and he has not.
I am a “safe vote” but too many people are ignoring the elephant in the room. As bad as the “Summer of Love” was (and it hurt him) it pales in comparison to what happened after he turned over his Presidency to Fauci and by doing so we all lost in 2020. It has legitimately costs me several thousand dollars per month with this administration.
He is still proud of Warp Speed. Damn the torpedoes and move the bureaucracy to get the shots but too many forget that the same big pharma companies he moved heaven and earth for paid him back by holding the release until AFTER the election (it had an impact).
Furthermore, for a guy who bragged about saving taxpayers a few hundred million with the Jerusalem embassy or the new Air Force 1 can anyone explain to me what kind of deal it is where Pfizer and Moderna arrange for the taxpayers to purchase their product and they make tens of billions in profit. It happened because of Trump and “we” even owned part of the technology? Not exactly a good deal for the taxpayers was it?
We even did their advertising for them and in some cases mandated the use of the product (military for example) so that increased their profit margin that much more!
I would respect him more if he just admitted that he got played, we got played, and he promised to make real changes to prevent this from ever happening again. That is a message I could support, but even if I am a “safe vote” his inability to address this irks me and I fully expect that the left will blame him for the vaccine problems. I know others disagree, but look what they did to kick him out of office? They eat their own when its politically expedient (ask Andrew Cuomo).
It cost him his reelection and it may well cost him again because SOMEBODY is going to be blamed for the failed shot and we are talking about a guy who just got blamed for a train derailment two years after he left office.
Fauci will blame Trump. Birx will blame Trump. A few of the backstabbers in his own WH will blame Trump. I would even bet the big pharma executives will blame Trump. We already know the media will blame him.
This is going to be the #1 issue going into 2024. The “economy” situation benefits Trump, but the media won’t really cover it. They will cover the failed vaccine.
He needs to address it honestly because there will be a narrative and if he continues to ignore it you can bet it won’t be a good narrative for him. There are over a dozen high level studies underway now in 1st world countries that will not only show that the shots failed, but they will show that the shots made it worse and even caused death.
Our media won’t be able to ignore the elephant in the room so they will shift like always to use it against Trump. The bureaucracy and corporate America will fall in line as always. Trump has no margin for error and the sooner he tackles this the better because they are writing the script as we speak. Bet on it.
The longer he is silent the more they will blame him. Better to make your enemies react to you and defend the current narrative than to remain silent and write a new narrative. That is what Sun Tzu would do Mr. President.
“It cost him his reelection”
It didn’t. RAT/RINO cheating cost him his re-election. He got millions more votes than he did in 2016.
What cost him his re-election, i.e., the massive fraud effort, was that he exposed the deep state and was trying to destroy it. Thousands of pols, elites, etc., were endangered; they couldn’t let that stand.
