It’s terrible news for our democracy, but pretending Trump is toast won’t help us deal with what’s coming (Opinion)
Remember all GOP senators who said that Trump wasn’t fit to be president? All of them, nearly to a person, ultimately bent at least one knee.
As for the Murdoch media empire, Trump didn’t need it to win in 2015. Just as the New York Post mocks Trump now, so did it mock Trump in 2015. While Trump longs for the days of Roger Ailes at Fox News, Fox News is arguably a much friendlier place for him now, with a primetime line-up that has Laura Ingraham as opposed to Megyn Kelly.
Perhaps most crucially, Trump has leverage. I don’t think even his harshest critics would doubt Trump’s sincerity if he threatened to abandon the party if he didn’t win the GOP nomination.
New York Times columnist Bret Stephens, who admits he was wrong like many pundits predicting Trump’s demise before,is confident in his prediction of political demise this time. Among the reasons he cites is that Trump is “finally being abandoned by many of his usually unflagging apologists and enablers in right-wing media,” citing some criticisms, not repudiations, from several usually Trump-supporting political commentators.
