ed by the current party sachems: an end to “endless wars,” support for hardline trade tariff s, a tough stand against illegal immigration (Trump’s “border wall” in ’16 was the “Buchanan Ditch” in ’96), and a facedown against political correct- ness. As Rep. Liz Cheney battles for
her political life in Wyoming and George P. Bush is locked in a gruel- ing three-way primary for attorney general of Texas, the centrist “Old Guard” GOP establishment is fad- ing and up-and-coming candidates are embracing Trumpism — and Trump himself.
How 2024 Looks Today Assuming Trump runs and wins his party’s nomination for another crack at the White House, there is no guarantee at all he would win a general election. The years of grueling combat
with the media and his penchant for outrageous statements have tak- en their toll. The same Quinnipiac poll show-
ing his resounding popularity among rank-and-fi le Republicans also found that 60 percent of voters of all stripes — Republicans, Demo- crats, and independents — feel it would be “bad for the country” if Trump ran again. Polarization of politics was evi-
dent in the survey: 73 percent of Re- publicans felt a Trump candidacy would be “good for the country,” and 95 percent of Democrats felt it would be “bad for the country.” Among independents, 60 per-
cent felt the former president should not run. But the scenario of 2024 nomi-

Trump Wil — It Won’t Ev
He will shine as Biden’s catastrophes pile up, says Dick Morris.
F
or the first time ever, don- ald Trump holds a six-point lead over Joe Biden in a Rasmussen poll. Voters support him by 43-37. In fact, the August 16-17 Rasmussen
poll has 12 percent of Biden’s voters abandoning him if the election were held today. Only 2 percent of Trump supporters would leave him. So a signifi cant number of Biden’s
voters would switch to Trump if the election were today. But the election isn’t today. It’s in a little over three years, so what good is a poll now? Well, think about it. What’s going to
improve with age? Certainly not Joe Biden. His appar-
ent senility and dementia aren’t going to get better. Nor is Afghanistan. Never mind
any Americans still trapped there. There are the sto-
ries about the brutal treatment of women by the horrible Taliban regime.
Afghan-based ter-
rorism will soon be unleashed anew on the world. Nor is the situation
Who will come through this open
door? With no vetting, screening, or abil-
ity to remove them once they’re here, we will have plenty of goodwill ambas- sadors from the newly minted Taliban government anxious to pay their re- spects.
When you combine Biden’s failure
in Kabul with his failure at the south- ern border, you have a powder keg that could explode in any major American city.
And how about infl ation? When
Biden jams through his $3.5 trillion spending program, the printing presses will be smoking, turning out dollars each with less and less value. Crime’s not getting better, either.
Only 2% of Trump
on the border with Mexico going to improve. Biden has is- sued an engraved invitation to millions of refugees to come here. Instead of Donald Trump’s wall, we have Joe Biden’s open door.
The demoralization of police caused by their disempower- ment at the hands of the woke left will only accelerate. Crime will surely rise. And China? Em-
supporters would leave him.
boldened by Biden’s weakness, we can ex- pect Beijing’s threats against Taiwan to es- calate, perhaps leading to another war. There’s no reason
to believe that Biden will back off his plans to reverse Trump’s policy con- taining Iran. With no sanctions or ro- bust inspection, there will be nothing to stand between Tehran and the bomb.
