There are three things that if they happen in conjunction between now and Election Day 2024 could make Trump a real contender for a second term and, as such, single handedly causing a Second American Civil War.
Indictment
If Jack Smith indicts Trump, then ding-dong Trump instantly becomes a far Right martyr — again — and, as such, he gets a lot of momentum again. Because, as we know, Republicans are in love with “idea” of Trump. They don’t really like Trump as a person, they like what a fighter he is.
A Perfect Storm
If there is a chatbot revolution in the context of a moderate to severe recession in 2023 – 2024, then, suddenly, an indicted Trump really becomes a powerful force in American politics. Again. Even if he continues to be an absolute lazy idiot, if the country was reeling from millions of jobs being rendered moot by a chatbot revolution in the middle of a severe recession…Trump is going to the show.
Ron DeSantis Flames Out
It could be that DeSantis just isn’t ready for a primetime, national audience once he leaves the favorable confines of Florida. He could just not be someone who can handle the direct spotlight of the national press. Who knows.
