Charlie Baker Is Not the Next Trump – IOTW Report

Charlie Baker Is Not the Next Trump

American Thinker:There is a lot of talk about who the Republicans might field as their candidate in the 2024 presidential race. Aside from some discussion of a Trump offspring (Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump), many conservative pundits think that the Republican Party would be best served by taking a break from the Trump brand and thus denying the liberal media of all-too-easy targets for charges of nepotism and undeserved privilege.

[…] If ever the phrase “Don’t judge a book by its cover” applied, it’s here. On the national stage, Baker would be a Republican catastrophe of historic proportions. Conservative Massachusetts Republicans regard Baker as a classic RINO, Republican Lite, someone who consistently comes up short when faced with a defining moment. Consider these examples:

  1. Romney’s brother from another mother (I know, double entendre)?
    No thanks. Nothing approaching conservatism has ever come out of MA.
    I can see The Club have learned nothing post 2016 Trump and will be pulling strings behind the scene to seat RIno’s in the House. McConnell, Lindsey and Paul Ryan’s fingerprints are all over this.

    Further, floating Baker is a dog whistle to the most rabid NeverTrumpers.

    Why, Bill Kristol, David Frum and Charlie Sykes must be as jazzed as Andrew Gillum on a steamy afternoon in a Miami hotel, full of crank and a gay male escort, at the suggestion of getting behind Charlie Baker.

  2. Baker sounds like just the type of 2 faced scumbag Mitch would happily endorse.
    So far I like the Florida and Texas govs for the job but time will tell. Lots to still shake out.

    And don’t judge an unbleached starfish by its elasticity either!

  4. Charlie creeps me out. He looks like Jack Nicholson in “The Shining” in the very last scene when they zoom in on a black and white photo of him at the ball.

  5. Charlie Baker is a Never Trump douche; I voted for him the first time he ran for governor…when he “talked-the-talk; he doesn’t “walk-the-walk,” so I didn’t vote for him last time he ran. He is one of the Democrats ‘running dogs.” Strictly NG. He’s like George Pataki, but without the intelligence and charm.
