It’s Trump’s Race To Lose And He Still Can
Derek Hunter
There is a lot of confidence on the right right not about the election. Confidence is good, confidence is helpful. But confidence can also be destructive if it is allowed to lead to complacency. As the 2024 race comes to a close, former President Donald Trump the home stretch where you want to be – it’s always better to be ahead than behind – but he has to resist the urge to celebrate early, coast or in any way spike the football on the 5-yard-line. It’s Donald Trump’s race to lose, and he could still lose it.
Nothing, and I mean nothing, gets more attention on social media, clicks on websites or general traffic than anything Donald Trump related. Doesn’t matter if it’s a conservative or liberal website, pro-Trump or anti-Trump post – if it is Trump related it will do well.
That’s why you’re about to see a million headlines, each dumber than the last, in the closing days of the election. This could be the last chance for a while, as rage fades either through victory or defeat, for these outlets to cash in on the Trump phenomenon.
“Trump is winning” or “Trump is going to win and here’s why” headlines are like printing money, as are ones screaming, “Trump’s latest gaffe will be his undoing” or “Trump just made the biggest mistake of the campaign.” We’ve seen both, we’ll see even more.
It doesn’t matter if you read them or not, just know you’re helping perpetuate the problem by clicking on it.
