A very short thread.
1. It’s genuinely important for the country that Donald Trump isn’t re-elected to a second term.
2. The task of denying Trump a second term begins in the Republican primary. He might be denied renomination or be persuaded to withdraw (1968). At the very least, arguments will be made different from those in the Democratic primary that could move some voters away from Trump.
3. For now, the more challengers to Trump the merrier, as long as they are responsible public figures or sincerely repudiate past irresponsibilities. If the first wave of candidates weaken Trump and other, perhaps stronger, candidates then get in, so much the better.
4. But we will still owe a debt to those individuals who had the courage to step up at a time of utter moral collapse in the Republican party take a stand on behalf of their party and our country.
