This was a test. A CNN test. Actually, a media test to see if Trump could indeed bring in the ratings during the next 18 months as Trump did back in 2015-16. Remember, this was a "republican town hall", and those attending were "republicans" hand picked by CNN. Think of it as Club 54 for the maga. So, what did we expect? Trump still whining about 2020, Trump still calling opponents names like Ron DeSanctimonious. Nothing new there. Trump did refer to his past enemy Lindsey Graham as "a good guy", and referred to once hated Mike Pence also as a good guy. I figure that Trump figures he will need all the help he can get for 2024, yes even the support of Mike Pence the once hunted like a dog.
Folks....
This is what to expect as the 2024 president campaign gears up. Trump being Trump, the media loving it every minute of it, and all opponents i.e. Joe Biden Ron DeSanctimonious and all the rest ignored by the media and left in the dust. All the media cares about is pushing Donald Trump, the Howard Stern of presidential politics. Millions tune into Howard Stern and millions will vote for Donald Trump. Nothing has changed. The hate for democrats still there with the voters, the hate of Biden still there, the media more than willing to take a big crap on themselves to promote ratings, nothing has changed.
But anyhow, I did watch because I believe in knowing what the other side is up to. You need to know your enemy. Knowledge is power. To be informed and aware is power. Even if the other side makes you sick, still you need to know everything they are up to.
However... I have no claims to be physic nor clairvoyant, but Trump seemed different to me. He seemed to show the stress. Frankly, his health I would question far before Joe Biden's health. Trump may not live long enough to know if he was or was not reelected in 2024. And this makes it that much more important to see who Trump chooses as his running mate. People fear Kamala Harris inheriting the throne, I think it more likely that Trump's VP will inherit the throne after Trump is found dead in his Whitehouse bed a few days after reelected. Remember that new Pope who died before becoming the new Pope?
