for continued electoral success. Bowers knows what Trump is capable of, and yet, he says, he would still gift him with his vote in service to a system that Trump has done nothing but disdain.
His justification for that support is galling. Even if we are to take his premise at face value, that the pre-Covid Trump was good for America, the times that Bowers harkens back to happened despite, not because of, Trump’s unique effect on American politics. The first two and a half years of the Trump administration were better defined by the limits and constraints that managed to keep the president from spinning completely out of control.
The Trump that Bowers saw when the former president was asking him to break the law is the version we would get should he return to office. The rage, jealousies and grievances that fuel him would all be at the forefront of his mind. There would be no moment where anyone could pretend that he had finally grown into the role. There would be no guiding hand toI’d like to think there are Trump supporters who can still be reached with facts. I hope the Jan.
Bowers seems to have convinced himself that the former president got some bad advice but could turn himself around if given another chance. That means he would rather run the risk that the Constitution he has put his faith in be trampled on than vote for Biden in 2024. He thinks the odds are in his favor.
