The 2024 U.S. Presidential Election: A True One Issue Race

The magic of a good salesman is to be able to offer you something so fantastic that it revolutionizes the way you think and present it in such a way of confidence, with credentials, that you will then ask the salesman to confirm the very fantastic thing he just told you.

That was Trumps magic in 2016. "I know the system is corrupt because I use it" was just one of his many revolutionary platform statements. When the salesman makes a statement like that honestly he can sell you anything. Trump did and sold half the country on it.

Fast forward to 2020. Trump was unable to sell anyone anything. It was now the Democrats and Statists that had the fantastic line: he's corrupt! And who did everyone look to for verification? The very source of the fantastic.

Trump was unable to overcome this regardless of how the votes turned out. Too many people were unable to care about 81 million votes for a few reasons:

For starters, Trump was corrupt, he admitted to being so in 2016. That was the double-edged sword of his magic. Nobody forgot it, especially swing voters from the Democratic party.

Second was the Biden (or the Statists') line about "the adults" running things again. People were relieved when they saw windows being covered, magic boxes of Biden votes showing up at 3 am, and pipes bursting- shutting down entire voting populations that would vote for Trump. People were relieved that "they" wouldn't let the con-man back in office to sell them again: because the real betrayal of Trump (to them) is that, as the 'outside' man who saw how corrupt it all was, he never delivered on cleaning out the swamp. Fool me once... and I'll abstain or vote 3rd party, or in the case of the Democratic swing voter who was still in dire straits since 2016 watching their cities burn, voting against Trump was a small consolation they could afford themselves, because they had zero to lose.

So Biden wins 2020 (one way or another, it doesn't matter because in the end it was the magic that made the difference anyway, not the votes.) So how does Trump overcome this in 2024? I don't think he can. I don't think he or his team knows what happened in 2020. Thus, if Trump becomes the Republican nominee he will be set up for disaster. He has already proven that he can't be trusted to "clean up the swamp" so what other platform does he have? "I was robbed" is going to fall on deaf ears of a nation that watched its cities burn, has given in to climate extremism, has record homelessness and drug addiction, and can barely afford to care at all. What is Trump selling us this time?

The only answer Trump can afford is China. If that becomes his platform (and I believe it will) he has a chance again. But will it be enough?

On the other side 2024 the Democrats have the same issue. They have been thoroughly burned on being the "adults in the room" and their great equalizer, Biden, has been proven to be everything they said Trump was on the corruption front in 2016 (and worse for them, with connection to China.) Selling Ukraine isn't going so well since so many Americans are just tired of nation building policies, not to mention the obvious fraud involved there. And stability of any kind, social policies, etc., will get them laughed at in the ballot boxes in every city in America.

So the Democrats have wokism (which is just a brand of the WEF, and a thin veil of Communism...) but name me a Democrat that isn't a communist or Socialist. You can't, because there isn't one. But do the Democrats have the base in numbers large enough to remove the veil and run on Communism? (I hope they think so, because either way, 2024 will be a one issue race: China, or Communism.) It would be nice to simply have these things out in the open for one election in my lifetime.

"Vote Communist" vs "Vote Freedom" seems easy enough. It won't be for many, but it will seem to be for most. Until the votes come in.

In the end it doesn't matter who the nominees are. It only matters if they know what the 2024 election is about. Trump has a weakness of making everything about himself. If he does, if '24 becomes about vindication of retribution for 2020, he is DOA to many voters.

The Democrats, whoever they put forth, will simply be the flavor of the week. The candidate will stand for nothing, speak of nothing, promise everything, and will undoubtedly be against, or for everything depending on the wind; but will ultimately be Communist to their core. They will be anything and everything needed to achieve the power. In any case they will be a magic salesman, of that you can be certain.
