Trump and Republican unity
By David Zukerman
Ronna Romney McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, has offered a weak call for GOP unity under a
"Beat Biden" battle cry. If Ms. McDaniel were guided by the need for Republican unity, she would support the re-election of
Donald J. Trump, under this banner: Viva la restoration!
McDaniel's call for unity includes the obvious assertion that failure of Republicans to support Republican candidates is "untenable" -- a fortiori the failure of Republicans to support the candidacy of Pres. Trump in 2016 and, with lethal effect, in 2020. As we now know, the failure to provide unconditional support for the 2020 re-election of Pres. Trump has had a devastating impact on domestic and foreign policies. Under President Trump, inflation was not a threat to family well-being, and Russia did not dare go to war against Ukraine. With the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan under Biden, Putin saw an opportunity to strike against western encroachment on Russia's eastern borders. On the domestic front, apparently there is no policy too bizarre for Biden to impose on the American people -- all the while employing political hate speech to divide the homeland into red and blue sectors of estrangement.
Rep. Bob Good, endorsing DeSantis for president, has said that the governor has shown "strength in the face of adversity."
As RNC head, McDaniel should have pointed out that if DeSantis has demonstrated remarkable strength, Donald Trump, from the time he announced for president in June 2015 to the present day, has demonstrated strength of a magnitude one hundred times the strength exhibited by the Florida governor, or indeed any other Republican -- as he stands largely alone to face the lies and contumely of the hate-mongering left.
