Donald Trump’s day trip to an Atlanta jail Thursday will show that the defining moments of the 2024 election are more likely to happen in the courtroom than in campaign trail rituals like the presidential debate that he cold-shouldered.
The idea that the front-runner for a major party nomination would boycott the first televised clash between candidates, then the next day surrender to authorities over his fourth criminal indictment would have been unthinkable at any previous moment in history.
Candidates like Christie, who are willing to tell the truth about Trump and address the logjam of criminal cases that could hurt him among more moderate general election voters, appear to have little chance to win the nomination. And those like DeSantis, who hedge around the issue – implying that Trump could be a liability in 2024 but are loath to criticize his conduct – are doing nothing to slow the ex-president.
