Conservative historian and scholar Victor Davis Hanson appeared on the Laura Ingraham Show last night to comment on the state of the 2024 race.
Hanson pointed out that the Democrats want to get rid of Joe Biden, but they do not know how or when to do so.
He also noted that while Biden is in near-collapse, Trump is hurtling toward a political recovery that appears historic.

LAURA INGRAHAM: Joining me now is Chris Bedford, a senior contributor to The Federalist. and Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution. Victor, we see a lot of division on the left. There is clearly a division on the right as well. But how big a problem will the Biden campaign face when the truth begins to emerge as they get closer to the general?
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON, SENIOR FELLOW AT THE HOOVER INSTITUTION: Yes, I think we've reached a point of no return, Laura, with the corruption issue, the epistemological issue, the unpopularity and disaster of his agenda, and now this dissension within the Democratic Party. It's a question not of if they'll try to remove it, but when and how, and I don't think they have the answers to either.
It's truly the most visible downfall of a president we've seen in our modern era, and it's coupled with probably the biggest political rebound for Donald Trump since Richard Nixon in 1962. And Donald Trump, the more they try to demonize him and imprison him or imprison him. Use legal warfare against him, the more popular he becomes. So, it's strange how things have turned around since 2021.
It's great. I think they are in trouble, and they don't know it, they know what they have to do, but they don't know how to do it and when to do it…
Hanson goes on to say he's still concerned about mail-in ballots. Watch the whole thing:
Hanson's points are well made. The Republican Party would do well to get its act together.
