What’s likely to be effective in stopping him is the fact that he’s now
lost them 3 elections in a row, not any principles or real objections to

They don't believe they lost. Seriously.

Which is one of the reasons I continue to ask why they don't just start shooting the American Left, rank and file and "tyrannical government".

Of course. His advantage was his fanbois belief in his "strength", and
when you lose you look weak.

I gotta think that his announcing early is going to make him weaker
yet, because it's clear that he will struggle to get exposure. As he
starts feeling ignored, he'll do things which make him look truly
desperate. That isn't a good look. DeSantis should keep waiting; the
Donald risks implosion month by month. If his rallies stop pulling in
crowds, he's done.

'To his credit, Trump killed off the Clinton dynasty in 2016, nominated and got confirmed three constitutionalist justices, reformed taxes, pushed deregulation, got control of the border, significantly degraded ISIS in Syria and Iraq, and cinched normalization deals between Israel and the Gulf states, among other things. These are achievements that even his conservative doubters and critics — including NR — can acknowledge and applaud.'

If he'd conceded the last election gracefully, then spent the next couple years
talking about what he had accomplished, I think the Republicans would have
won this last election. And Trump would be a favorite to get the nomination for

Not that Trump is capable of doing that.

Can't agree with your characterization. They didn't want Trump, for sure, but didn't
endorse Biden or Clinton either. The recent election shows why Trump is bad, as the
candidates embracing his "stop the steal" crap ran 5-7 points behind generic Republicans.

NR is completely behind DeSantis or Pompeo, both of whom could be expected to pursue
Trump-like policies without the toxic baggage of said petty narcissist.

the Republicans might nominate Trump but they'll lose again. The rank and file Repubs might be a majority of the party but a minority of the country. I think even Hillary would beat Trump in 2024 and that's saying a lot about Trump's non-electability. Boy, that would be a horrible choice, as it was in 2016.
