Politics is a strange game of twists and turns, each more surprising than the last. Just look at what’s happened to Biden and Trump in less than a month.
Just days after the horrific assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump that left Corey Comparatore dead and two more injured, the full gravity of what happened is sinking it, and it might just save Joe Biden’s candidacy.
According to Axios, a leading House Democrat now says, “We’ve all resigned ourselves to a second Trump presidency.” Can you blame them?
The last time there was an image of courage, freedom and America as iconic as Trump raising his fist after being shot was on Iwo Jima, and both will now live forever in history.
Four months out from a general election, a lot can happen, and to be sure, Trump has not won a second non-consecutive term yet, but the electoral Magic 8 Ball says signs point to yes and that is reason enough to leave Grandpa Joe on the ticket.
After all, the whole point of a last-minute switcheroo to a Vice President Kamala Harris or a Gov. Gavin Newsom was to present a young, fresh face full of energy, but now they could both run double marathons and not look as indomitable as the bloodied former president.
And it is more than that, since it became clear that Trump would be the GOP nominee the Democrats have put all of their eggs in the single basket of his supposed grave threat to democracy, now with deadly consequences.
