In the midst of Joe Biden’s worst hour, Donald Trump will accomplish his greatest achievement.
After an unparalleled criminal conviction, an assassination attempt, a failed attempt to steal the 2020 election, and the acceptance of the Republican nomination on Thursday, the 78-year-old ex-president will advance one of the most remarkable comebacks in political history.
Meanwhile, a Democratic mutiny is shaking 81-year-old Biden. Legislators are worried about his mental health and health, and many are pessimistic about his ability to prevent the extreme possibility of a second Trump term. As a result, questions regarding his ability to defeat his 2020 opponent have resurfaced. According to AWN’s sources, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently advised the president that, according to polls, he had little chance of beating Trump and, by remaining in the race, could derail Democratic aspirations of capturing the House.
After months of relative quiet, the race for president has burst into a historic showdown during the past three weeks, with Biden’s disastrous performance in the debate and the attempted assassination of Trump serving as the event’s extremes. This kind of rapid succession of events has not been witnessed in fifty years.
If the 45th president becomes just the second one-term president to win reelection in November, his comeback will have been completely realized. However, his comeback up to this point might be even more improbable than his shocking 2016 election victory. Trump is emerging as a historic political force, having revolutionized his party and the nation. His return to the White House on January 20, 2025, might have both positive and negative effects. This is evident from his rise to the top of the GOP ticket.
Current events impact Trump’s approach to the election
With less than four months to go before the election, Trump’s campaign has taken an optimistic turn, with better optics than the Republican could have hoped for.
The Republican nominee who narrowly avoided being shot by an assassin and then sprang up, bloodied but determined, raised his fist and vowed to “fight.” In contrast, Biden stayed home in Delaware on Wednesday after contracting a case of COVID-19, avoiding the campaign circuit.
On Tuesday, in front of a primetime television audience at the convention, Trump forced his defeated primary opponents to swear allegiance, executing one of the most astounding displays of domination in any modern political party. Meanwhile, party heavyweights like Adam Schiff of California have publicly said that Biden should resign, and he is getting into heated confrontations with politicians who are claiming that he would cost them the Senate, the House, and the White House.
The two candidates’ contrasting fortunes are mirrored in the electoral map. Even in states that are considered to be in the thick of the election, Trump maintains a commanding lead. Even if Biden’s condition is still salvageable, most experts think he has a slim chance of gaining 270 electoral votes by appealing to Blue Wall states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. In other places, his campaign has not given up, he claims.
Instead of looking at relative campaign successes in July, millions of Americans cast their votes in the fall to determine who wins the presidency. The fact that Trump is attending a convention while simultaneously exhibiting the party from which he has purportedly removed all opposition voices during an eight-year political purge may have inflated his apparent momentum. Many Americans still hold the former president in contempt for his autocratic tendencies, racially charged statements, and cult of personality. But that’s why his campaign is trying to keep Biden in the race by playing hard to get him to drop out.
Legislators and contributors who are afraid of a Republican landslide in November are the real danger to Biden’s campaign, not the pundits.
The Trump Republican Party has displayed unusual discipline and togetherness in contrast to the disintegrating Democratic Party. This is supported by the increasing feeling among delegates in Milwaukee that the former president is being re-elected.
Following Trump’s narrow escape from the Pennsylvania murder attempt, his campaign has taken advantage of the circumstances to transform his reputation. Additionally, it has presented his four years in office as a picture of economic and political perfection. He and his team are working to erase all traces of the anarchy, animosity, and attacks on constitutional order that marked his presidency. These events led up to his attempt to undermine democracy in order to remain in power and the mob riot that broke out at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, which resulted in his second impeachment.
The GOP is depicting a country that is impoverished, plagued by violence and an influx of illegal immigrants, and economically disadvantaged relative to the rest of the globe. This image is completely subjective. Despite falling crime rates and historically low unemployment rates, Americans are nevertheless dealing with high pricing. Trump sabotaged a bipartisan package that would have addressed the border and attempted to alleviate the immigration situation, while the economy is outperforming other industrialized nations. Biden, who reenergized NATO and challenged the Kremlin’s assault on Ukraine, is being accused of being weak on Russia by the party led by a man who repeatedly bowed to Putin, in what is arguably the most audacious bait-and-switch.
In his speech to the GOP convention on Wednesday night, JD Vance—Trump’s new vice presidential nominee—took the image-making to new heights. In the wake of the awful events in Pennsylvania, where Trump collapsed to the ground but rose up again, wounded but unbowed, the Republican senator from Ohio spun a tale of national salvation.
Vance enthralled the delegates with the video of a would-be assassin who was only a quarter of an inch away from killing himself. Reflect on the falsehoods they spread regarding Donald Trump. Check out the photo of him raising his fist in defiance. In that Pennsylvania field, when Donald J. Trump stood up, every American stood up with him.
To restore what, if lost, may never be regained again, Donald Trump is America’s last best hope.
