If Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan decided to be a presidential candidate next year, she would be barred from the debates.
The GOP debate rules include a pledge to support the Republican 2024 presidential nominee and Ms. Noonan makes it clear, from the opening paragraph of her latest weekend column that she would not back a Trump candidacy.
Noonan declares in her lede paragraph that if "Trump Republicans" nominate the former president next year, "they will have ended the Republican Party." That there be no mistaking her comment as mere figurative remark, she declares in the following paragraph: "I mean it literally. The GOP will disappear as a party. Meaning the primary national vehicle of conservative thought and policy will disappear."
As the title of this screed indicates -- "Chris Christie and the Republican Party's Peril'' -- Noonan spends half the column discussing the "expected" entry of the former bullying governor of New Jersey in the GOP 2024 presidential field. (Is such an entry now viable in view of the requirement that all presidential debaters pledge their support for the nominee? Christie backing Mr. Trump? Not likely.)
This is to suggest that Peggy Noonan should receive the Liz Cheney Award for Political Prognostication Premised on Poor Perceptions of Donald J. Trump. More briefly, Peggy Noonan abhors the idea that conservatism should be tempered by populism, rather than elitism.
The neo-totalitarians in our politics are desperately straining to convince the American people that they are incipient terrorists if they support conservative populism, better known today as the MAGA movement.

Finally :)
Noonan is still alive? She was relevant in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Time to retire and enjoy time with the grandkids, Peggy. No one cares what you think.
She has become a self-important colossal bore. Does anyone who supports Trump or RDS read her anymore.

Egad. Her again. I hadn’t heard from her in so long I hope she drifted off into retirement or obscurity.
Comical when speech writers think they were policy setters and should be listened to raptly. Silly bimbo.
“Peggy Noonan should receive the Liz Cheney Award for Political Prognostication”
Why the WSJ allows this old cow to keep mooing is beyond me. She has a tiny audience.
BTTT
She’s almost as relevant as Bill Kristol.
Noonan writes like she gets paid by the word. Friggin’ hack.
She says that like it's a bad thing.
She's right on one count and wrong on another.
The Republican Party was exposed as a bunch of feckless frauds after the 2000 and 2016 elections when it had full control of the Federal government and never pursued anything remotely resembling a "conservative" agenda. In fact, the disaster of the GWB administration was precisely what made the Bush family less popular than child molesters among Republican voters, and what made a TV clown like Donald Trump a credible national political figure.
Frankly, the GOP should have been disbanded as a political party after 2017 when it failed miserably to repeal ObamaCare despite spending the prior seven 'effing years raising money and campaigning to do exactly that.
She says that like it's something bad.
Deep-state, RINO sh** like this, and their endless Ukraine propaganda is why I can’t subscribe to the WSJ
Peggy, release your pearls and take a deep breath. Pour yourself another tiny glass of Nerve Tonic and leave the heavy lifting to MAGA World. We got this.
I've been waiting to see posts showing up on FR saying that or something similar.
IMHO, some of the back and forth of late is histrionic, even comparing to past FR election run up fights.
Trump had great ideas but he’s no longer the leader we need to move the ball forward. He cannot win the general election and he shouldn’t. He’s made everything about him and not the movement and the nation. We need a better Trump than Trump in 2024. I am still looking for a candidate to emerge.
She’s making me feel pretty positive about supporting Trump over the other options.
What an endorsement!
