MSNBC Panel: America Feels Like It’s in Its ‘Post-Trump’ Phase But He’s the Candidate Biden Can Beat

‘The GOP didn’t learn in history’

EXCERPT:

KOMANDURI: “Well, — said the only thing you learn from history is no one’s learned anything from history. The GOP didn’t learn in history. Kept repeating the same mistakes, ket going to the base. And the year feels like it’s a bookend of two different announcements. In 2015 when Trump went down that golden escalator, he changed America and the world, unfortunately, probably forever. In 2022, when he announced again that he was running for president, he didn’t even change fox’s primetime lineup didn’t make a ripple and since then has been just one negative story after another I think it’s really remarkable America now at the end of 2022 feels post pandemic. But we also feel very much like we’re post Trump the politics are changing. Facebook and Twitter, that had been the drivers of a lot of our politics for the last ten years, is receding in its influence for different reasons. However, I don’t see a Republican Party that’s changing.”
