The Breakdown with Shaun King

Ep. 727 - I just don't think Trump can win the Republican nomination


Listen Later

Trump is struggling. At life. At politics. And, of particular note today, he's struggling IN THE POLLS. Multiple new polls have Trump tanking. And for good reason.


He was like poison to every major candidate he endorsed in the mid-terms. He was seen as such a liability to Herschel Walker, HIS HAND PICKED CANDIDATE for Georgia, that in the final days, the Walker campaign basically told him to stay far away.


The Trump Organization itself was just convicted of multiple crimes. And it's highly possible that he's going to be charged with multiple crimes himself in the months ahead.


But if Trump can't win, I just don't think that Joe Biden is the right candidate to go against someone like Ron DeSantis.


Biden can absolutely beat Trump, but I think he would struggle against most other candidates.


Which puts a lot of candidates, and the Democratic Party itself, in a very weird position. What should they do?


Let me unpack and explain it.
