Former George W. Bush speechwriter David Frum made the case on Monday that former President Donald Trump will blow what should be a very winnable election to President Joe Biden.

Appearing on CNN, Frum argued that Trump's narcissism is simply too great to allow the 2024 election to be a referendum in the incumbent, President Joe Biden.

"He will not consent to the election being a referendum on Joe Biden," he declared. "If he had any sense, if he had any self-control... before Trump is a thug, he is a crook, and before he's a crook, he's a head case."

Frum then said that Trump's pathology was so great that it would force him to abandon what would otherwise likely be a successful strategy against an unpopular incumbent president.

"So of course he should make the election about the incumbent, that's what every challenger should always do," he said. "But when the challenger is a raving, out-of-control egomaniac, he can't do it. And so the election will be about Trump... There's one central poll that has mattered in the last ten years, and that is this: 'Blah, blah, blah, Donald Trump, blah, blah blah.' And the answer is 47 percent yes, 53 percent no."
