ll Triumph ven Be Close
So don’t tell me Biden’s ratings will
be getting any better. The 2022 elections will deliver both
houses of Congress to the Republicans, whose hearings, investigations, and probes will show up the corruption, waste, and criminal ineffi ciency in Biden’s massive spending pro- grams. And what will
Trump be doing? He will be leading the op- position as Biden’s ca- tastrophes pile up one upon the other. An articulate voice
just not up to the job. At every turn, Biden’s failure will
be self-evident, standing in vivid con- trast to Trump’s successes. And if it should happen that we
12% of Biden’s
voters would abandon him if the
election were held today.
in dissent, Trump will make the case for all of us. Every day he will pound home the
message that the border was secure during his presidency, crime was under control, and infl ation was nonexistent. He’ll draw a sharp contrast between
his own strength and Biden’s weakness. As each new foreign threat arises,
Trump’s strength and fi rmness will emerge as a nostalgic throwback to times when America stood up for itself. But will Trump’s opponent even be
Joe Biden? After a crashing defeat in the elec-
tion of 2022, will the Democratic Party be so indulgent toward its hapless, inef- fective, and incompetent leader? Will it continue to look the other way as his inability to lead becomes more evident? As disaster piles upon disaster, the
pressure for impeachment by the Re- publicans and removal via the 25th Amendment by the Democrats will grow exponentially. From both sides we will hear the same critique: Joe Biden is
face Vice President Kamala Harris, not Biden, in 2024, so much the better. Biden’s skills have
eroded and deterio- rated over the years, but Harris never had any. She will be totally unable to step into the Oval Offi ce, especially in the dangerous and fraught environment Biden will have left
behind. It’s in the crucible of these crises that
Donald Trump’s defects will emerge re- confi gured as assets. His strength and courage in stand-
ing up to foreign tyrants will be cele- brated, as will his determination to seal the southern border. The threats that will be emerging
from Beijing, Kabul, and Tehran will frame Trump’s toughness and patrio- tism. His strength will come as a wel- come relief after four years of Biden or Harris. In 1980, when we faced similar prob-
lems because of the same weakness we now see in the presidency, Ronald Reagan was a sight for sore eyes. So will Trump be — but with the added ele- ment of his past proven success. With Reagan, we had to hope that he would do well. With Trump, we’ll know. Election fraud? The best protection
against it is a landslide, and that’s what America will give Trump.
hold water. Quinnipiac found that by 54 percent to 33 percent, Ameri- can voters across the board felt that Biden would not run in 2024 at age 82. Even a plurality of Democrats
(45 percent) agreed “Joe will go.” And a September poll from Em-
erson College showed Trump edg- ing out Biden 47 percent to 45 per- cent in a potential 2024 rematch of last year’s election. Trump was easily the preferred choice of Republicans. A whopping 67 percent said
they would vote for him in the GOP primary while 10 percent said they wanted another candidate. If Trump doesn’t run, 32 percent
said they would vote for Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., and 24 percent chose former Vice President Mike Pence. The Emerson poll showed that
Biden is stronger against DeSan- tis, with a 48 percent to 36 percent edge. In a hypothetical scenario in
which former GOP presidential nominee Sen. Mitt Romney, R- Utah, was the potential nominee, Biden crushed the Utah senator 42 percent to 23 percent, with 29 per- cent indicating they would vote for someone else. With subsequent developments
in Afghanistan and the COVID-19 rebound working against the presi- dent, the number of people antici- pating a Biden exit in 2024 is ris- ing.
As the Washington dinner party
circuit regroups after a year-plus quarantine, one of the most talked- of topics (not to mention worst- kept secrets among Democrats) is
