Did a single candidate from his trumper stumper tour win?

He’s a loser. Just like the rest of his MAGA buddies.


Actually, he's the winner, and that's why you're pissed.


Exactly. The sour grapes are strong with this crew of nutjobs.


Meh. People are allowed to say they don't like him without it being sour grapes or nut jobs.


Meh, those people are terrified of 2024. Biden probably won't even be alive and if you think Harriss can beat Trump, then you know nothing about America.


I think a good portion would choose her over Trump.

Half those republicans listed don’t have a job/about to lose their job in politics. Youngkin still has 3 more years of work to do in Virginia, no time to be thinking about Iowa and New Hampshire

“Working”

Is he back in the VA after his GOP campaign job?

He’s so early 2022 and no longer the darling of the Republic a party, which has now become Desantis.

+ 1. I didn't vote for him, but have slowly become a fan. I think he has the smarts and the appeal to win on a national level, though perhaps not as soon as 2024.

Honestly, I don't even think *he* is interested in a 2024 run - it seems to be insecure and nervous Democrats who keep obsessing over him. I can see him perhaps doing something else for a few years, or maybe being a VP candidate. At any rate, he'll be successful no matter what he chooses to do.

Of course he wants to run in 2024. Otherwise he becomes a political nobody in 2025 and everyone will have forgotten about him by 2028. And that assumes the Republican loses in 2024 and there’s another primary in 2028. If the Republican candidate wins in 2024, Youngkin will have to wait until 2032 for another shot at the presidency. What is he going to do in the meantime to stay politically relevant? If he runs for another statewide office in the meantime and loses, he can kiss the presidential nomination goodbye. Virginia is too much of a battleground state to give it up for a guy who would have already proven he can’t reliably win it even when it’s his home state.

+3. Only republican I would consider voting for.

All of the candidates who he endorsed would disagree.

Sorry. Trumphumpers are out.

What on earth is a "trumphumper"? Do you realize how ridiculous you sound?

Ugh. I hope his political future is non-existent, but I fear he is in it for the long-haul. That makes me want to hurl.

I think he ran a very savvy and targeted campaign. He benefited from everyone being exhausted from the pandemic in 2021. He was in the right place at the right time.
If he had run in 2022, post RvW, he would have lost. He’s one and done. Nobody will remember him after his term is up.

And he had a lot of help from a vast network of far right wing extremists from all around the country, who did things like travel in from all around the country to descend on several NoVA school boards pretending to be local parents, harrassing and threatening people over imaginary CRT, gay bathrooms and whatever else. A network of extremists, which, incidentally also includes former military PsyOps officer Emily Rainey, who lives in Moore County NC where the power transformers were destroyed causing an outage. She also led a group of 100 people during the J6 attack on the US Capitol. That's part of the shadow army that Youngkin has on his side.
