Today, I break down the decision by Donald Trump to skip the Republican debate tomorrow night, instead choosing to sit down with Tucker Carlson. I explain how this is an opportunity for Chris Christie and Tim Scott to prove they are viable contenders for the nomination, as opposed to Ron DeSantis.
If you’d prefer to read the transcript, you can do so here.
As I’ve said previously, while I know that many of you may be tempted NOT to watch the debate because there’s little doubt that it will be a travesty, I would encourage you to do so because one of the people on that stage is likely to be the Republican nominee. Among those people are the individuals who have to succeed if Trump is to be stopped before he appears on a general election ballot. For those who do choose to opt out, I’ll be doing a video commentary right after it, and will share it with you all.
Spot on Steve. I agree with you about Christie and you also nailed it on the press. I have turned off cable. They are idiots talking nonsense. The press is broken though some are trying. One thing though. I think the Republican party should now be called the Insurrectionist Party. They defend the insurrection. I think MAGA is dead because Trump can never come back from this. Whatever the outcome he will never come back from 4 indictments and 90 counts. No matter what he says or does, he looks guilty except to the batsh*t crazies. And I thing most Americans, even those who might have voted for him before and like what he did, don't want the liabilities he brings. Think of how people who are indicted become outcasts because nobody wants to get involved with that and they don't want it rubbing off on them. Our world image cannot support an elected criminal because, let's face it, we are too self-righteous. So, stick a fork in him though the toast may take some time to be done. Meanwhile, we have cancer in the House and it needs to be treated.
The American people benefit the most from Trump skipping the Republican debate. Donald Trump is a coward and can not back up any of his false bravado. The only policy he had in his 4 years was cruelty. Cruelty doesn't solve problems, it only exacerbates the problem.
