The remarkable comeback of Donald Trump

By Ciaran Ryan - posted Wednesday, 16 October 2024


That curve ball threw Trump off his stride, and his debate performance against her, where he infamously said that Haitian immigrants were eating 'cats and dogs', led many to declare that Trump's campaign was in troubled waters.

But only weeks out from the election, and the polls being virtually a tie, Trump remains within striking distance of triumph.

Despite millions considering him something of a bad joke, and recoiling in horror at the prospect that this often-boorish man could return to the Oval Office, millions of others look back fondly to the pre-Covid Trump era, when basic things like buying groceries and filling up their car, weren't so prohibitive. And they contend that a 'strong man' like Trump is exactly what the world needs right now, with wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, not to mention the necessity to return to a secure border policy to stem the flow of millions of illegal immigrants pouring into the US.

If Trump does win in November, it will go down in history as the greatest political comeback of all time.
