On Sunday’s CNN Newsroom, host Fredricka Whitfield brought on Allan Lichtman, a left-wing history professor from American University to smear the Republican Party as being “out of step” and suggesting the GOP is on the verge of extinction by saying “this may be their last chance to revamp the party.” After the disappointing electoral performance Republicans had on Tuesday, there has been talk of Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis running in 2024 because of his landslide reelection victory. Lichtman made sure to shoot down the idea of Ron DeSantis being a more appealing alternative to former President Donald Trump.
Whitfield asked Lichtman if he thinks Republicans “have to acknowledge this is a moment of correction,” and to “return to some of those pillars of the Republican Party, and if they don't, then like you said, they are looking at the demise of the party as once they knew it.”
Lichtman demanded that Republicans “must do that,” and claimed the GOP “had an opportunity after 2018 when they suffered grievous losses. They had an opportunity after 2020 when their incumbent President lost. They did not seize either of those opportunities.”
