7 Political Views on a Possible Trump Re-election:
Senator Cory Booker
Cory Booker’s primary concern is related to all the steps that are currently taken to remove the safeguards that we had in the last election.
He also worries that, given that the elections are coming and that more and more anti-democratic changes are happening, we will have to deal with real disagreements.
Plus, he says that we might end up having politicians who make the decisions as opposed to people that are truly independent.
As democracy is extremely fragile now, we can see that lots of state leaders are constantly denying that the last election has been fair or that Joe Biden is our president, which makes things even worse.
When the time comes, they will vote for Donald Trump because, in their vision, he is the rightful winner.
Daniel Drezner
According to Daniel Drezner, Trump needed the first four years of his mandate to understand how some of the levers of government worked. By the end of it, however, he started to realize the power of personnel moves and executive action, especially in foreign policy.
As Daniel said, if Trump is the winner of the 2024 elections, he will probably pursue his foreign policy approach in a very unconstrained manner. From the start, this includes U.S. withdrawals from NATO and other security agreements with Japan and South Korea.
Norm Eisen
Norm Eisen says that if the bipartisan, voter-led, pro-democracy coalition that managed to save us in 2020 will come together again, the worst-case scenario ming be avoided altogether.
State officials had a very critical part to play in all this, as those elections that are national events are resolved at the states, and we are going to need not only a few, but all of them to do that all over again and work even harder than before.
We do have a model for doing that, and I believe it can work again. If we all work together hard enough, Norm Eisen is optimistic that things will turn out just fine.
Rick Hasen
Rick Hasen is a law professor at the University of California, Irvine. He described how the worst-case scenario is that we don’t have a truly fair election and that Donald Trump or someone who will follow Donald Trump’s playbook will do something that’s going to lead to a certain situation where the loser is declared the winner of the election.
All of this would symbolize the end of American democracy, at least for a while. According to Hasen, probably the most likely thing would be a legalistic argument that could try to have some sort of state legislature overturn those election results and have Congress ratify those changes. Trump tried this strategy in 2020 but was completely unsuccessful.

Trump is the Best President we have ever had , Democrats are from the pits of Hell.
President Trump should definitely run again in 2024, regardless of what happens in the House or Congress. He is strong. He is the only one who can save this country from the mess that we are in because of the failed policies of the Biden White House. Definitely.
I pray President Trump is elected in 2024. What a mess our country is in. We all know Trump will be able to turn everything back to all the good he did the four years he was president, even with the Dems against him constantly. It is going to take a long time to undo all the bad the Biden adminatrations has done, so we the people must be patient and help as much as possible.
It’s pretty obvious that the Democrats are taking us into socialism so either way we will no longer be a democracy if you believe Trump or perhaps DeSantis will not preserve or democracy.
I would like to see the things Trump got right for the country versus the things Biden got right compared on national TV for the laymen of this country and the dem voters to see. But the left wing media will never allow it.
