Eight years later, we’re still doing this?
in a wide field of potential Republican candidates for the nomination. Trump came in at 53 percent and DeSantis at 20. Youngkin landed at 1 percent, lower than former Wyoming representative Liz Cheney.you might respond. And that’s true. But it is also true that DeSantis wasn’t a candidate at that point either. Not to mention Cheney.. Biden won by 8 points. Only 7 in 10 Republicans said they planned to back Youngkin.
There are a few factors at play here. One is the ongoing sense among many Republicans who dislike Trump that, surely, their party couldn’t have moved that far away from them. That there must bethat can derail his candidacy. It’s a sentiment that should have been effectively quashed at some point in the past seven years but, for many people, hasn’t been.that should give the lie to this idea.
But this brings us to another factor. There are a lot of people out there in the world who have personal power or money or both and who are used to being able to shape the world around them. There are a lot of deep-pocketed Republican donors in particular who meet that description. So they look around for a solution and, here, view Youngkin as a possibility.
Maybe. Or maybe Trump is popular with Republicans and holds a huge lead as a function of that popularity. Maybe there is no silver bullet here, no way in which that personal power can change the minds of the GOP electorate.
