The stage is set for the first Republican primary debate and the frontrunner for the nomination won’t even be there.
It’s a pathetic cop out, but not a shock.
Donald Trump’s approach to politics is simple: seriously engage no one, mock and insult, assume victory and, if you lose, insist that you’ve been robbed.
‘Why would I allow people at one or two percent and zero percent to be hitting me with questions all night?’ Trump asked Fox News’ host Bret Baier, who will be moderating Wednesday night.
After all, Trump leads Ron DeSantis, his closest competitor, by 40 percentage points, according to the latest Real Clear Politics average of national polling.
Why would he risk his lead?
Because, Don, this is not all about you!
The primary is a contest, not a coronation. You’re not owed the nomination, let alone the presidency.
You should have learned that lesson in 2020 when you lost to President Biden by millions and millions of votes, or in the 2022 midterms when nearly every single Trump-endorsed Senate candidate lost and frittered away Republican-control of Congress.
