Donald Trump looks increasingly like he is gonna get the hook from voters….
With that…
We will see more and MORE looks in the media at what the the post-Trump Presidency world might be….
“His weaker poll numbers and off-the-wall tweets plus his flexible, day-to-day ideology empower and in some cases encourage dissent,” said Tom Davis, a former chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee. “Politics is, above all, a game of survival, and his off-message remarks do not inspire confidence.”
The search for a post-Trump direction is made more complicated by the universal acknowledgment that Trump will never truly be gone, even if he loses in November; his Twitter feed will still drive news coverage, and a potential deal to land a television network could give rise to a political force that would drive the conservative conversation for years to come.
“Trump is not going to go away after he loses the election. He’s going to have a TV network,” said one operative close to Senate Republicans. “He’s going to be a protagonist again. He’s so comfortable in that role.”
Two distinct groups of prominent Republicans are considering ways to move beyond Trump, though the immediacy of their mission varies.
One is a large and growing set of Republicans who are already positioning themselves for the next race for the White House. They are testing new messages, appearing with favored candidates in ideologically divided primaries and staking out territory they hope will give them a springboard in what is certain to be a crowded field of candidates running to be Trump’s successor…..
Maybe a Republican can start messaging that during these Great Depression-like times, the $600 weekly supplemental unemployment benefit could be called The Lord’s Program instead of the Democratic Program. Maybe it would get (don’t hold your breathe) some Republicans to support it.
It just seems like they don’t care RE?
I would say I don’t get it but?
Low wages ARE a ‘brand’ for them…..
And
somemost of the GOPer’s getting screwed will vote Republican no matter what….
