if trump runs in 2024

if trump is endorsed by the republican party to run for election in 2024 for president of the united states, do you think this is going to harm the republican party and there chance of there party being in power . as an neutral british observer to these mid term results it has far as gone as well for the republicans as trump boasted .🤔 maybe a case of satisfaction with joes performance as president 🤔 may a case trump is a liability to the republicans and people have long memories from his disasterous last term in office . if trump loses the election for candidate too run for president then you may see the republicans fair better in 2024 , in the united kingdom in the eighties it was the reason thatcher won two elections in 1983 and 1987,this was because the labour party had leaders in the shape of foot and kinnock who where not popular with the british electorate which condemned us brits to the cruel hand of thatcherism .sadly if trump represents the republican party in 2024 the same fortune maybe the same we had in britain in the eighties

The midterms did NOT go as well as republicans hoped or predicted. It was widely predicted that there would be a "red wave" meaning lots of people from the conservative republican party would replace the more liberal democrats. It did not turn out that way. There was a small "red ripple" not a wave. And many republicans that Trump had specifically endorsed - and even campaigned for - failed to win.

This is widely viewed as a defeat of Trump and Trumpism. Trump had promised some sort of "big announcement" a week or two after the election, and many pundits thought he would use the red wave and victories of his endorsed candidates as a springboard to announce a new presidential campaign for 2024.

I think Trump will run again for 2024. I think he'll be opposed by Florida Gov Ron DeSantis. DeSantis likes big PR gestures that stir up the dummies, but he's no dummy himself. He's a highly educated calculating professional politician. Being a professional politician with no business experience is a weakness in today's republican party.

I think it'll be a long dirty fight between the two, and with just a bit of luck they'll both emerge politically damaged.
@ElwoodBlues DeSantis is in over his head. Trump literally called him a pedophile and he had no response. Trump has no limits on what he’s willing to say, and DeSantis isn’t going to roll around in the mud with him. I also think he’s peaking too early.
@LeopoldBloom I certainly hope you're right. If Trump goes on trial and makes a fool of himself, it's likely that DeSantis will pick up the derp vote. I'm not sure of the ramifications of that.
@ElwoodBlues Many Trump voters won't support DeSantis after Trump is done with him. The only reason DeSantis seems to be doing well now is because the people who are tired of Trump are desperately searching for a successor, so they settled on him because he pwns the libs. But once people get to know him, DeSantis is finished. He's a slick, nasal-voiced sniveler who comes across as a bad used car salesman.
@LeopoldBloom They will certainly need to give up their admiration for businessmen and wealth. DeSantis has spent almost his entire career on one gov't salary or another. But let us not underestimate the maga power of self deception and delusion.
@ElwoodBlues A MAGA is someone who says they revere the military, but thinks John McCain was a traitor to America and Cadet Bonespurs is a war hero.
