Mirengoff: Dumb, And Dumber — About 2024.

So… we are now exactly a year away from the next Presidential election.

And both the NYT and Paul are bleating — about a single poll covering five states.

Each of their tellings suffer from a form of delusional fanaticism.

Perhaps never in the history of the nation is any one candidate more likely to be a convicted felon, by next November. Jailed, even perhaps.

More broadly, there has never been a candidate whose fortunes may well change so radically, in under 11 months, due entirely to factors he no longer has any meaningful control over.

His ship — on all this sailed three years ago, now — and in the case of NY State, at least a decade ago.

So, never in the history of the world have polls taken more than a year out meant… less.

More than that, assuming the GOP does not nominate Tangerine (still a very real possibility if he’s a felony convict by July 2024) — he will certainly kill the GOP by running third party. You know he will.

And… the poll takes no account of the millions and millions of votes Kennedy is likely to siphon off of Tangerine. So… it is less than meaningless, at this point.

Hilarious. But go ahead — sell your faux drama, boys.

Me? I’ll look in on it all, again — at about September 2024.

Cheers.
