According to Mick Mulvaney, a former congressman from South Carolina and a contributor to NewsNation, unless Donald Trump can learn how to add as well as he subtracts and divides, the math seems to point to yet another loss in 2024.

While Trump sees dividing as a necessary precursor to conquering, his divisive tactics did not work for him in the 2020 elections or in the House and Senate elections of 2018 and 2022.

Unless Donald Trump can learn how to add as well as he subtracts and divides, the math seems to point to yet another loss in 2024.

Donald Trump's actions could further undermine confidence in democracy and the rule of law. Several Republican enablers could end his candidacy in an instant. However, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and other prominent voices in the Republican Party either downplay the threat of another Trump presidency or make false equivalences that President Biden and other Democrats are as bad or worse than Trump.

Republican truth-tellers could lose their jobs for speaking out against Trump, but Republicans appear to place gaining and maintaining control of government above laws and democracy.

If there were more Republicans willing to speak out, perhaps the electorate could focus on the records and messages of Republican candidates who have not denied election results, committed sexual abuse, or called on supporters to overthrow the government in their name.

Despite concerns among Republican leaders, Donald Trump remains a hero among his supporters. His heroic status is due in part to his unapologetic style and his willingness to take on the establishment.

Trump's supporters see him as a hero defending them from the injustices of the political and media elites. They view his attacks on fellow Republicans as necessary to root out those who do not support Trump's agenda.

While his heroism may have cost him some support among moderate Republicans, it has also solidified his base of loyal supporters who see him as a champion of the people.

Donald Trump's supporters often talk about his comeback as if it were a heroic feat of magic. However, the reality is that Trump faces significant challenges in winning the 2024 elections.

In addition to his divisive tactics and tendency to subtract from his support, Trump also faces legal and financial problems that could affect his candidacy. He also faces the challenge of running against a popular incumbent president, Joe Biden.

Ultimately, the justice of the electoral process will determine whether Donald Trump wins the 2024 elections or not. If he wins, it will be because he has convinced enough Americans to support him and his vision for the country.

If he loses, it will be because the majority of Americans have rejected his divisive tactics and his vision for the country. In either case, the electoral process will have worked as it should, allowing the people to choose their leaders based on their vision for the future.
