I don’t see any alternative to Trump and frankly things are going to be so screwed up in two years at the rate we are going that anybody will have a very difficult time turning it around.
However, while I am not throwing him overboard like others are for what is obviously a heated subject I too wish he would shut up about vaccines. It is pretty obvious that he continues to form many of his opinions based on main-stream media who continue to cheer for vaccines. Trump’s base is not nearly as enthusiastic.
The vaccines failed. It was not Trump’s fault but there is NOBODY in Realsville who can call the vaccines a success at this point. Trump succeeded wildly in rolling them out but despite their initial success against the original variant and the fear they are not doing anything currently for the new variants and they are creating massive division and disruption in our nation.
Just my .02. Trump needs to be hammering economics and immigration instead of playing into the Covid hysteria.
“I don’t see any alternative to Trump...”
I would have no problem with DeSantis.
based on his interview history going back decades (pre-politics), it seems clear he understands how to use the media to promote himself. I think it was something of a surprise to him just how aggressively they turned on him during the campaign. he caught on and used it against them, with some success but nothing like what a supportive press would have done for him.
the only areas he has had fairly consistent views over the years were trade with china problems and north korea.
I have no idea what he really thinks about the vaccines. his name is on them in a lot of ways. why on earth would he get vaccinated then boostered after having recovered from the virus?
he is said to be extremely germaphobic. does that play in?
certainly more questions than answers here.
One could make a case that Trump is trying to divide Republicans with some of his latest actions. Just a few things I’ve noticed...
- Promoting boosters, after calling them a money making scam before
- Now to the point of attacking others for not taking boosters, which have proven worthless
- Wishing Ghislaine Maxwell well several times during her trial
- Cancelling his January 6 speech
- Refusing to announce for 2024, or not, when Biden already has
Maybe there’s nothing to it, but I haven’t agreed with much he’s done lately, myself. He seems to be dividing Republicans more than uniting us against Democrats.

This isn’t getting turned around. The death blow has been delivered. There’s no going back. It’s walking through the valley of the shadow of death now.
