According to longtime conservative columnist Max Boot, if the choice in the 2024 presidential election is between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump, it is incumbent on voters to make sure that Trump never sets foot in the Oval Office again.
In his column for the Washington Post he wrote that, given what has been learned about Trump during his presidency, his part in the Jan. 6 insurrection and his pronouncements as of late, he is clearly unfit to be president again.
Calling the fact that polls show Trump and Biden close to neck and neck in the 2024 race "disturbing," he added, "That means, given the Republican advantage in the electoral college, that he is probably ahead in the electoral count."

Writing that after Trump's loss in 2020 the country now appears headed back to "Crazytown," he explained, "The prospect of another Trump term is the greatest foreseeable disaster that can befall the United States and the world."
"Trump is likely to be 10 times more dangerous this time around, because he won’t allow any adults in the White House to act as a check on his worst instincts — no more Jim Mattis as defense secretary, John F. Kelly as chief of staff or H.R. McMaster as national security adviser," he wrote before adding the second Trump administration will most likely be populated with staffers as "unhinged" as the former president.
"We had better hope that popular perceptions of the economy improve … and that a likely Trump conviction might dissuade swing voters from supporting him," he wrote while expressing dismay that Biden's age might catch up to him.
He then warned, "Otherwise, come November 2024, we might be facing the end of the world as we know it."
