Is there a Republican fit to be President?

I don’t place much value in pundits. The Jewish pundits in 1933 stated there was no need to fear Hitler. Jews were much to valuable, especially to Goering, for Hitler to do what he said he would. In 2015 Jeb Bush was the predicted nominee for Republicans in the 2016, race as the GOP struggled for identity. Pundits can be incredulously wrong as they were in 1969 when they picked the Colts and Johnny Unitas to beat the upstart Jets and Joe Namath.

We have since learned, “When people show you who they are, believe them the first time.” It’s 2023, Republicans have found their identity and it’s White Supremacy, and lying. One year from now presidential candidates will be jockeying for position. The Republicans thus far have no acceptable candidates. Ron DeSantis is a racist. Greg Abbot is, a no pun intended, spineless, ignorant, racist, Sarah Sanders is a lying racist. 139 Republican Congressman and 8 Republican Senators who refuse to admit Trump lied about the 2020 election, are unfit to serve as President, or even in their present capacities.

Trump’s former cabinet members Mike Pompeo and United Nations Secretary Nikki Haley have all but formally announced their intention to run. Mike Pence is expected to run. To win, they will have to beat their former boss who maintains a strong hold on the base. And if one of them were to win the nomination, would Republicans support them?

Frankly, I don’t know if the GOP can find a candidate acceptable to United States Citizens who are not racist. So who will the Republican’s nominate in 2024? That will take a pundit to predict.
