With Trump leading Biden in recent polls, Coppins suggests Romney may again consider alternative options to keep Trump from power. While Romney disagrees with Biden's policies, he sees Trump as a fundamental threat to democracy and wants to do whatever he can to block him in 2024. Coppins says Romney was convinced a third party bid would inadvertently help Trump, so he declined to run as an independent in 2020. But with another Trump-Biden showdown likely, Coppins believes Romney will have a very hard time sitting idly by in 2024. Despite policy differences with Democrats, Romney's distaste for Trump's character and conduct may motivate him to take action to prevent Trump's return. Could we see Romney launch a surprise independent campaign? Or will he remain a vocal GOP critic of Trump? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
