Nixonian Democrats?
Some Democrats would prefer Trump as a presidential candidate for the other party. They think he would be easier to defeat.
Democratic money helped MAGA candidates in 2022 primary elections, and those MAGA candidates went down to defeat in November.
Yes, it works, but I have a long memory and so I don't like it.
Some people will tell you that Nixon didn't need to do all those Watergate dirty tricks in 1972 because McGovern would have lost anyway.
What they don't realize is that all those dirty tricks were to help McGovern win the nomination because he was the weakest candidate.
Muskie was the odds on favorite at the beginning of the race. Donald Segretti knocked him out with dirty tricks.
And so it went, on and on, with one candidate after another on the Democratic side being eliminated by the CREEP.
No I admit it's different now, in that those Democrats supporting MAGA Republicans aren't hiding what they are doing.
But it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. That's not the way to conduct an honorable and ethical political campaign.
It's the kind of sleazoid political skullduggery someone as crooked as Richard Nixon would do. I don't like it.
