Why Donald Trump is the clear front-runner for the 2024 nomination

CNN

(CNN)President Donald Trump has yet to formally concede the 2020 presidential race, but he's already planning to run again in four years' time.

Both Axios and The Washington Post have reported in recent days that Trump is telling those close to him that he plans to run again in 2024. And his decision on Wednesday to publicly endorse Ronna McDaniel for another term as chairwoman of the Republican National Committee sends a clear message that the soon-to-be-ex-President has no plans to relinquish his death grip on the GOP solely because he lost the 2020 contest.

And here's the most frightening thing for rival Republicans with an eye on 2024: It's very hard to imagine anyone can keep Trump from the 2024 nomination if he wants it.

Why? Because Trump is not just the dominant figure in the party (and among the party's base) right now. He is the only face of the party, the result of a four-year campaign designed to eradicate all dissenting voices from within the GOP, while turning the remainders into willing supplicants. What that campaign has wrought is a devastated GOP landscape where Trump is effectively like the Eye of Sauron -- a totally dominant and terror-inducing presence for everyone it looks upon.

1. No. One. Cares. Trump.

[Binkie The Clown]

2. He'll be 4 years older, looks 8 years older, be 4 years deeper into dementia,

be less able to hold up a glass of water with one hand, less able to walk down a simple ramp or to negotiate a staircase. In short, he will be visibly falling apart at the seams and won't have a chance.

9. Be 40 pounds heavier and look like a big mean bear.

[Buns_of_Fire]

23. Given his calorie consumption, I'm thinking Jabba the Trump. nt

[LakeArenal]

3. His rose will fade in four years

All that will be left are some thorns.

[OAITW r.2.0]

4. Donald Trump will run in 2024.....

just not the orange version.

[LuvNewcastle]

12. Yep, the son.

He's stupid enough to control, so the big money people might find him attractive.

[Ferrets are Cool]

5. Jail the motherfucker. He can't run from prison.

[Whiskeytide]

10. Sadly, he probably could. And he'd prob still get the R nomination. n/t

[brooklynite]

15. See: Debs, Eugene (1920)

[True Blue American]

6. Trump will be

In a Nursing home by 2024 or dead from a stroke.. He is eating himself into his grave.

[Thomas Hurt]

7. unless he drops dead....

[Whiskeytide]

16. I think someone in the R party would have him ...

... “fall” out of a window. It seems clear now that he’s using his base to hold them hostage as well. I think a lot of them are weary of it.

[struggle4progress]

8. Let's handle today first. I'm not yet worried about him in 2024

[BlueJac]

11. Who cares?

[NCDem47]

13. We are NOT talking about Trump every day for the next four years!

I’d rather listen to:

Dems in disarray

Biden’s support is soft

The national deficit is a crisis. We must cut spending.

All sarcasm of course folks.

[Wellstone ruled]

14. So this is why CNN

is not calling Arizona for Biden. Did we not see this coming? A Redux of 2015-16',great for our bottom line. Kind of Shallow,eh.

[greenjar_01]

17. There there, brooklynite

There there.

[tavernier]

18. Do they think Trump will be encased in amber for the next four years?

Like a chrysalis about to turn into a butterfly?

He will no longer be president and there will be many things for which he will have to answer, many pipers to pay.

I don’t see his return to any position of power, frankly.

[mshasta]

19. Rona is waiting for him----

the people around him are constantly getting infected, the maga idiots already are infected...in 4 years anything can happend

[LuvNewcastle]

20. One important thing Biden should do is have an investigation into

the Trumpy presidency and come out with indictments of people who committed crimes, especially those who committed espionage, like Trumpy himself. The entire Mueller Report should also be released. There needs to be a major truth offensive against all things Trumpy.

[dawg day]

21. I like it-- Trump running in 2024 and winning the nomination--

This would be the biggest landslide against him in history. And the GOP will be in cinders.

Trash Article, for extreme bias

Cilizza should be banned from Dem sites as a RW Talking point of view. 🙄

[JenniferJuniper]

24. He's more likely to be dead in four years

Just look at him.

[usajumpedtheshark]

25. I think it would be great if the Republican nominee was a convict serving time

[crickets]

26. Shut up, CNN. jfc, right now I do not CARE about 2024.

Could we please focus on digging his sorry self out of the WH in 2020? I refuse to give in to CNN clickbait. There are so many other important things they should be talking about, but they are still pandering to his base with a story like this.

[LuckyCharms]

27. Trump is a one pump chump.

[WyattKansas]

28. Reality: Why Donald Dumbass is #1 in 2024... Because none of his secrets have been exposed yet.

Just wait a few years for all his evil dirty deeds come to light and most Americans are calling for him to be prosecuted and imprisoned.

His name brand will be as good as Charles Manson by the time 2024 rolls around.

[Xolodno]

29. Oh I'm sure Dump thinks he's running again in 2024.

Only problem is, whose going finance his campaign? He had a billion dollar war chest and squandered it. Big donors notice things like that. Plus his ill advised trade wars and complete mishandling of the pandemic hurt a lot of businesses....which are probably owned by big donors.

[onethatcares]

30. he can only

call ted cruz's wife ugly so many times and rubio, "little marco" before it gets really old.

four years from now I picture him in a wheelchair with a blanket on his lap and drool running out of his piehole.

When a camera pans over him the words will be, "ex presidunce blah blah bla", if he ever shows in public again.

It'll take til the end of 2021 for his supporters to say, "never voted for him"
