Republican who voted to impeach Trump says former president 'will be hard to stop'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.), who voted to impeach then-President Trump following the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, said on Sunday he believes Trump will run again in 2024 and that voters “still like him a lot.”

Upton predicted to CNN “State of the Union” co-anchor Dana Bash that the former president will be difficult to beat if he pursues a third bid for the White House amid high prices at the pump and other economic challenges.

“He’s had a number of decisive wins where he’s endorsed candidates that they have won,” Upton said of Trump. “He’s had a few losses as well, but he certainly entertains a majority of the Republican base and will be hard to stop.”

Democrats are facing historical headwinds as this year’s midterm elections approach, a political problem exacerbated by voters’ concerns over President Biden’s handling of the economy.

First of all most voters never liked Trump. He got lucky via an anachronism known as the electoral college in 2016.

Second Reagan, Clinton and Obama all saw their party lose seats in Congress in the midterms yet went on to be reelected to a second term. Two years is an eternity in politics.

1. Your two paragraphs at the end are exactly right

I wish despondent Democrats would remember your last comment.

2. Trump will have much of the same support.

I suspect though that some republicans and independents, even some former supporters, want some peace and quiet from the constant turmoil, chaos, stress, obvious lies, disruption, divisiveness and noise that is trump.

We need some rest from all his crap.

3. I agree with part of this...but many voted for him as the unknown. They now know how he is.

And are as horrified as we are
