Donald Trump, if you listen to Dems, is an existential threat to Democracy who belongs in jail.
But they also want him to run in 2024 because he’ll be the easiest candidate to beat, or so says former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean:
Fox News ignored Trump’s speech from his first appearance back in Washington D.C. since leaving office. Fmr. Governor Howard Dean joins @AriMelber, saying he “hopes Trump is the nominee” because he thinks Democrats “have a great chance of beating him.” https://t.co/b33nYNeQ7a

Be careful what you wish for, Dems. Dean’s comment comes at about 2:20 in the clip below:
Dems, this is how you get four more years of Donald Trump:
What could go wrong when Dems meddle in GOP primaries?
In 1966, Dems undermined a mainstream Republican running for Calif governor.
They wanted to face his conservative opponent.
The conservative won the primary — & the general.
His name: Ronald Reagan https://t.co/REyl5bLdLz

And please explain to us why we should care about the January 6 Committee hearings when *they* want Trump to run again?
why should I give a s*it about the Jan 6 committee when Dems are hoping Trump runs again anyway? https://t.co/bLj7lJUBjR

It’s all theater. Dems want Trump to run, but Howard Dean is the only one with the guts to say it out loud:
New: Members of the House Jan. 6 committee are divided on whether to condemn the growing trend of Democrats meddling in GOP primaries to boost pro-Trump election deniers — a tactic designed to secure more favorable matchups in the general election https://t.co/D4ZO1lg2to

When will they learn? They’re also meddling in House races hoping to get the most MAGA candidates elected, again thinking it will make them easier to beat in the general election:
House Dems blasts DCCC interference in GOP primaries boosting pro-Trump candidates https://t.co/TuN20TbsMC

At least some Dems see how foolish this is:
It is wrong for Democrats to play in GOP primaries to lift up Trump Big Lie candidates who don’t believe in the basics of our democracy.
I’ve made clear to the DCCC Chair that this is the antithesis of what Democrats stand for.
We must spend our resources wisely, not cynically. https://t.co/k0ZFC7PW4H
