That is what we just witnessed take place tonight. I am reflecting on what has occurred over the last four years.
In February of 2021, Donald Trump was persona non grata even in Republican circles. Members of his own party wouldn’t even be seen with him. He was in the middle of a second impeachment trial and soon to be criminally investigated and indicted in 4 different states. He was banned on all social media platforms, having to resort to old fashion press releases only his family and friends would circulate. His wife’s donations to charities were refused simply because of her last name. They were exiled. Polls showed Republican voters might be looking for other leaders. DeSantis? Youngkin? Haley?
Once he began his campaign, he would have to spend part of his days in a court room, and the other part on the campaign trail. He had to fight state AG cases attempting to bankrupt him of his financial resources. He then had to deal with a total 180 in an unprecedented move of a major party nominee being thrown off the ticket, after Trump had spent millions only dollars and years running against Biden, and replaced with a new opponent. He even withstood a bullet to head. All the while, his support grew and grew.
And it all culminated in this, what looks like it will be a modern landslide. Only the second Republican to win the popular vote in almost 40 years.
Love him or hate him, one must recognize and appreciate what we just witnessed. This was a truly legendary campaign that will go down in the annals of American history for centuries to come.
American loves a comeback story, and she just got her biggest one to date.
