In a groundbreaking development, Donald Trump told the truth today, sending shockwaves through the MAGA world. Undoubtedly, a considerable number of MAGA politicians worried, “What if he keeps telling the truth? Did he get hit in the head with a 3 iron?”

How did Trump tell the truth? By bragging, of course, except – this time, it’s… unfortunately, 100% true. From Business Insider:

Former President Donald Trump said he’d throw his support behind his son, Donald Trump Jr., should he choose to run for public office in the future.

“I would help him,” Trump told Washington Examiner’s David Drucker in an interview for his new book, “In Trump’s Shadow: The Battle for 2024 and the Future of the GOP,” which came out on Tuesday.

“There are certain places where he couldn’t be beaten,” the former president added, without mentioning specifics.

Trump is right, there are “certain places” where, with Trump’s help and money, he literally couldn’t be beaten.

As for specifics, we’ll be happy to help out. Someone find Louis Gohmert’s district, if he even has one anymore (Louis wouldn’t know, neither would anyone else), Junior would win it, easily. Wyoming. South Dakota. Alaska. Idaho. Louisiana. Anywhere in which his faux rugged-outdoorsman thing would play well, combined with the last name, he’d win. Easily.

We would strongly suggest he start either in Congress or maybe even the Senate, where he can completely hide his incompetence behind over one hundred other MAGAs and not fck anything up too much. If he ran for governor of any of these states he would likely also win. But governors actually do sh*t and an idiot can be exposed very quickly. Being a whacky jackass like Lauren Boebert works when you’re nothing but one of 435, or even Tommy Tuberville being one of 100. But no one wants Lauren Boebert in charge when a natural disaster hits a state or every teacher walks out, some things require real leadership.

So even though he could likely win a senate seat, a congressional seat, or a governorship, there are good choices and bad choices within those possibilities. He also – presumably – would have to at least pretend to move to these states for a time.

By the end of the Trump presidency, Junior spoke MAGA better than Senior. Junior wrote the books, did the circuit talking to people, luxuriated in MAGA worship, and absorbed the culture, the religion, the cult. He understands the MAGAs better than the old man and was getting bigger applause line. Competence, obviously, never had anything to do with anything when it came to Trumps and wouldn’t be an issue here.

Indeed, in some places, the only person who could beat Junior is Junior. We aren’t going to go deep into this other than to say that he has made public appearances in which he did not look well, period. He needs to get his health in order, or at least whatever might get in the way of perfectly articulating the psychotic MAGA message.

So, weird as it seems, Donald Trump told the truth. There are places where Don Jr. could run and not be beaten. Any caucus that has room for Madison Cawthorn and Marjorie Taylor-Greene surely has some locales perfect for Junior.
