Donald Trump has long understood the stakes in the election: The courts may decide his cases, but only voters can decide whether to return him to power. Trump is running for president, and trying to outrun law enforcement:
President of the United States since 2021
That dynamic has transformed the stakes of this election in ways that may not always be clear. Behind the debates over inflation, “wokeness” and the border, the 2024 election is at its core about the fundamental tenets of American democracy: the peaceful transfer of power, the independence of the nation’s justice system, the meaning of political free speech and the principle that no one is above the law.Trump has always understood this.
“Even those who were fence sitting or window shopping, many of them are of the belief that the justice system under Biden is simply out to get the former president,” said Jimmy Centers, a former aide to former Gov. Terry Branstad of Iowa, a Republican who later served as Trump’s ambassador to China. “It has only strengthened his support in Iowa, to the point at which his floor is much more solid than what it was earlier this spring.
“Even though people will rally around him in the moment, it starts to erode favorablity and his market share,” said Kristin Davison, chief operating officer of Never Back Down, the super PAC backing DeSantis. “More people will start to look forward.”Republicans’ responses to the third indictment have been similar to their complaints about the previous two — if slightly more muted.
