Trump may be a highly flawed man, but as the nation watches its government transform into a repressive, progressive Borg, who better to lead the charge to destroy it than the man who has weathered its slings and arrows for the last eight years? More than perhaps anyone in America, Trump understands the threat because he’s experienced firsthand the danger it poses. And unlike most, he recognizes who the real target is, something he pointed out to supporters in 2019: “In reality, they’re not after me, they’re after you. I’m just in the way.”
Whether sitting in a jail cell or out on the campaign trail, Donald Trump is the touchstone of the Republic. We either go forward as a nation of laws limited by the Constitution, or we transform into a nation of men governed only by coercion and brute force. There is no middle ground. Given that, I’ll take the guy in an orange jumpsuit every time.
If they'd just let him go another term and stymied him along the way, they'd never have to worry about it again. But I guess thinking ahead isn't in the democratic dictionary.
