Nobody can guess at the strategy which Donald Trump is attempting to employ these days to win the 2024 election. Comparing oneself to Jesus only goes so far. When you start talking about actual or metaphorical wounds, then it gets pretty tasteless pretty quick. And the Hannibal the cannibal schtick has run its course but you can’t convince him of that, either. No, Trump told Sean Spicer on their last interview that his MAGAs love to hear “about twenty different subjects.” Um…maybe try some new policies or share a vision for a better America when running for president? Just a thought. Heeeeeere’s Donnie.

Rebuttal, maybe? This is what goes for normal discourse these days, this is how far down we have dropped. And look to Fox News and Mike Johnson to stick up for Trump over this and describe how a big strong man named Daniel Webster came up to Trump with tears in his eyes and asked for his help with new entries in the dictionary. “Only you, Sir, have the words. You have all the best words. All 200 of them.”

And believe it or not, he’s going back to the sharks and electrocution. I kid you not. “Could I ride the electric down?”

There is more of this grueling mewling on Twitter if you want to pop over and look at it, but why bother? Trump has made it clear that this is what his rallies are going to be like from now until November — and he doesn’t need your vote anyhow, he’s got plenty.

The best day of our lives will be when the red light of the camera blinks out forever on this guy and we have some semblance of peace and normalcy again. Although make no mistake, America is never going back to a pre-Trump era. What will happen next is the 1946 moment in the GOP, referring back to Hitler’s 1946, when the remaining Nazis all swore that they never really were Nazis. No, they just went along to get along.

That will be followed by some kind of a regrouping of the GOP. Supposedly Trump is considering J.D. Vance and Doug Burgum as serious VP contenders? Maybe one of them will lead a new and revitalized GOP.

When the Whigs collapsed and the Republican party formed, they had some interesting talent come out of the hinterlands, notably an Illinois senator named Abraham Lincoln. I don’t see J.D. Vance as the new Lincoln but then I never saw the reality TV guy as presidential material, either. Maybe this is the direction we’re going.

Except Vance has no reason to court Trump in a post-Trump era. So maybe that’s how this will shake down, the 1946 Come To Jesus reckoning, followed by Vance, Stefanik and the rest claiming how they really felt about Trump.

Could be. We don’t know. Nobody has ever been in this place before, politically. This is all being made up on the spot, one minute at a time. And if you want to know who is totally clueless and out of ideas, it is Trump himself. That’s why he just gets up and does the old tired Catskills routine. He’s totally out of gas and running on fumes right now.

  3. And unbelievably he’s running neck and neck with Biden in the polls.

    Convenient, I’m sure for those who want the ratings of a close race.
