I'd guess that Trumpsters would agree with me that the writer is clueless on this:
Would-be 2024 GOP candidates are making moves and a battle for Republican National Committee chair could be coming soon.

They toss out names like Scott, Ducey and Jane Timken (?). I've also heard Cotton and others. This is nuts. No one person has had as much power in a political party as Donald Trump himself has in, maybe forever. He'll stay at the very forefront of the party with his media, and no candidate goes far with his explicit blessing. Hell, I'd put Don Jr. above anyone else in the party as a nominee. If not Trump himself. Or Ivanka. Or, hell, Baron. Eric and Tiffany in the cabinet.
Seems to me that anyone who doesn't see that Trump owns this party isn't paying attention.
For once I agree with you.
It's Trump's party now.
The media bias...96% negative press. The Russian Collusion Hoax. The bogus impeachment. The voter fraud. The blatant scheming and machinations by Democrats and the Deep State to remove him from power. You've created a martyr.
And after all that...he INCREASED his vote totals from 2016 by 8,000,000 votes.
Democrats lost seats in the House and failed to flip the Senate.
They also failed to flip a single state legislative body...but the Republicans did.
Now the Republicans have total control of the redistricting process in 28 states...almost assuring Republican control of the House in 2022.
And as long as Republicans hold the Senate...even if the Biden and the Democrats manage to steal the election...which is far from certain...Biden is a wounded lame duck in his first term...viewed as a Usurper by 70 million Americans and with a hostile Senate to contend with.
You've managed to wound our General...but you've lost the war.
So much energy was expended on "Orange Man Bad" that you lost on every other front.
6-3 Supreme Court.
Lost house seats.
Failed to flip the Senate.
Failed to flip a single state legislative body in a redistricting year.
Elected through fraud a wounded, first term lame duck, plagiarizing, gaffe machine, viewed as a corrupt and illegitimate usurper and thief.
And created a martyr in President Trump that you're never getting rid off.
This may well be the best political example of a pyrrhic victory in American history.
