Why Trump Will Declare Victory No Matter What

President Trump is positioning himself for a re-election campaign by urging voters to support him in the upcoming midterms, even though he's not officially on the ballot. Carlos Lozada from The New York Times suggests this tactic could turn the midterm elections into a broader referendum on Trump’s presidency. This move not only underscores Trump's ongoing influence but also highlights the potential polarization it could bring to American politics. It's a strategic maneuver that could have lasting implications for the 2024 election cycle and the broader political landscape.
