Dems Will Use Lawfare Against Any GOP Nominee

Everyone is exhausted with Donald Trump, and his legal problems, and his scandals, and his indictments, and his multiple impeachments, etc. If only we could get someone else without Trump’s baggage, the media could move on, and we’d finally put Democrats on the defensive about Biden’s record.

While I am certainly disappointed that DeSantis won’t be our nominee, I have no illusions about how he would be treated. The Democrats and the media have seen it as their mission to unseat every Republican President since they took down Nixon. Every single Republican nominee in my lifetime has been “literally Hitler,” including Bob Dole who actually fought against Hitler. Every Republican President in my life has had multiple scandals that were “bigger than Watergate.” And now that impeachments and indictments are on the table, it is an absolute certainty that every GOP presidential candidate going forward will face multiple nuisance indictments, and every Republican President will be impeached if there is a Democrat-controlled House.

Undoubtedly true, but DeSantis would probably not provide them with as much ammunition. This is more or less a moot point until 2028, of course, unless something happens that prevents Trump from getting the nomination.
