Media coverage of Jeffries' statement:🙈
'Who’s going to be the Republican candidate in ’28?’
@POTUS @realDonaldTrump- I will pick him. Whoever I pick will win.
In coming months we will see what other [2028] candidates are serious about running. The Republican operative quoted earlier went down a quick list of possibilities: "Sarah Sanders, Josh Hawley, Dave McCormick, Ted Cruz, Glenn Youngkin, Brian Kemp, Tom Cotton, Rick Scott, and five more we haven't thought of, plus a rich person or two."
There is only one thing certain about every single one of those potential candidates: None of them is Donald Trump. Maybe they won't have the president's liabilities, but they certainly won't have his unique political gifts. His appeal -- strong enough to twice be elected President of the United States -- is absolutely singular. There won't be another one like him, and no Republican candidate can pretend there will be.
As for Trump himself, in that pre-midterm conversation on Air Force One, he said he expected quite a few people to run, and that he, Trump, would play the decisive role in choosing the nominee. "They say, 'Who's going to be the Republican candidate in '28?' and they say, 'Anybody that President Trump wants,'" he told me. "I think that's right. I think I will pick him. Whoever I pick will win."
Maybe the midterms have reduced Trump's 2028 clout in the party, and maybe they haven't; you can make an argument either way. But there's no argument about the unmatched power Trump has exercised over the GOP. When we discussed the ways in which he had changed the face of the party, I asked, "How can any Republican keep that up?"
"They can't," Trump said. "It's going to be much different...They're going to do the best they can."
