CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 11, 2022
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL AND NEW YORK POST ARE CONSIDERED CONSERVATIVE NEWSPAPERS. THAT WORLDVIEW IS REFLECTED IN THE STORIES THEY CHOOSE TO COVER AND IN THEIR EDITORIAL AND OP-ED COLUMNS.
ON THURSDAY AND WITHOUT EXCEPTION, BOTH NEWSPAPERS AGREED: IT IS TIME FOR DONALD TRUMP TO LEAVE THE STAGE AND ALLOW A LESS TOXIC AND YOUNGER GENERATION OF REPUBLICANS TO RISE.
IT APPEARS TRUMP WILL ANNOUNCE ANOTHER RUN FOR PRESIDENT ON TUESDAY. OTHER REPUBLICANS, NOTABLY THE FAR MORE ATTRACTIVE FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS — THE BIGGEST WINNER IN TUESDAY’S ELECTION — HAVE TIME. LET TRUMP ANNOUNCE AND LET’S SEE WHERE HIS LEGAL PROBLEMS LEAD. CANDIDATES ENDORSED BY HIM LOST. SOME LOST BIG. BY CONTRAST, DESANTIS PUT TOGETHER A COALITION THAT INCLUDED LARGE NUMBERS OF HISPANICS THAT ALLOWED HIM TO WIN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, WHICH NO REPUBLICAN HAS DONE IN TWENTY YEARS.
TRUMP IS RUNNING ON EGO. DESANTIS RAN ON ACCOMPLISHMENTS. IT’S TIME FOR THE REPUBLICAN TORCH TO BE PASSED TO A NEW GENERATION. WATCH FOR REPUBLICANS WHO HAVE KOW-TOWED TO TRUMP TO BEGIN IGNORING, OR CRITICIZING HIM, FOR HIS LOSSES IN THREE ELECTIONS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
