Greg Gutfeld gave a great monologue in the wake of a New York Times poll finding Trump leading in five of six swing-states, pointing out that even when Trump isn’t in office, he’s haunting the left.
Just recently a handful of political hacks ranging from ex-Obama presidential campaign chief strategist David Axelrod to Democrat-turned-Republican-turned-Demorat Bill Kristol have cast doubt on Biden running in 2024, or called for him to drop out entirely. California Governor Gavin Newsom appears to be running a sort of “shadow presidential campaign,” and Biden is facing a 2024 primary challenge from Rep. Dean Philips.
Gutfeld: The Biden administration, the legacy media, and even our great philosophers just can't quit you, Donald. So it's not Trump at all, it's their psyche. Which means to me, if you liked Trump's policies but hated the constant presence of Trump, you should still vote Trump anyway, because whether he wins or not, the obsession will still always be there. So, you have a choice: Trump obsession and Biden politics or Trump obsession and Trump policies. See, like Joe Biden, it's a no-brainer. Fact is, it's Biden who continues to take his squinty eyes off the ball. Too bad that ball doesn't have blond hair and the fragrance of baby shampoo-- that would keep his attention. But do you think the Hamas attack would have happened if we weren't focusing on Ukraine's border 24/7?
If we weren't consumed by the White House's embrace of identity politics? If we weren't fearful over rampant crime in our cities? If we had to worry about being canceled or worse, being jailed over beliefs? Instead, we got all of that, plus Trump derangement but without the Trump policy. So we get the whining and paranoia without the hard line on Islamic radicalism, the relationship with Israel and the iron fist on immigration. Look, if we're going to have to hear all this bellyaching, can we at least feel safe while doing it?
Watch the full monologue below:
As we reported yesterday, with a year until the election, Trump is projected to garner over 300 electoral votes if current polling holds constant. “Trump, despite his multiple deep-state indictments and attempts to inhibit his re-election run, is leading by 11 points in Nevada, six in Georgia, five in Arizona, five in Michigan, and four in Pennsylvania. Biden leads in Wisconsin by just two points. Across all six, Trump is averaging 48 percent to Biden’s 44.”
