Donald Trump once wrote a bestselling book called “The Art of the Deal.” Maybe you’ve heard of it. Well, that star-studded spectacle you just saw in Madison Square Garden on Sunday night was the Art of the Close.
Packed house. Bright lights. In a campaign filled with indelible moments, this was simply the latest.
So what happens next?
Well, the New York Republican Party is certainly energized (and undoubtedly richer), but let’s be honest: If Trump actually carries the state of New York, all of this is kinda pointless anyway. If the 2024 MAGA Wave is large enough to swallow the Empire State, then we’re standing at the precipice of something larger and more generational than anyone’s wildest imagination. (Let’s temper our expectations and unchill our champagne bottles, shall we?)
Instead, this was the closing argument of the 20224 Presidential Election, Part One.
Earlier, I mentioned indelible moments. There’s been a lot of them already: Trump getting shot, Biden’s debate performance, Trump flipping burgers, Trump with Rogan, and now the visual of a packed house in the world’s most famous arena.
Trump planted a MAGA flag in the heart of the opposition. He entered the liberal lion’s den, stole the lion’s meal, and walked away unscathed.
