Prominent theologian and author Wayne Grudem, whose works include the best-selling Systematic Theology, is urging former President Donald Trump to drop out of the 2024 presidential race.
Grudem, who voted Republican in 2016 and 2020, applauds Trump's judicial appointments and his foreign, economic and immigration policies. He also warns against another Democratic administration, which he believes would appoint more liberal justices; increase taxes; fuel inflation and increase the total US debt burden.
Grudem outlines two potential courses of action the former president could take to determine the fate of his legacy. Under Plan A, Trump stays in the race and wins the Republican nomination - but loses the general election. According to Grudem, his legacy would have been a good start in 2017-2021, but after that he and the candidates he supported led Republicans to defeat in 2020, 2022, and 2024. But under Plan B, Trump drops out of the race and a younger Republican wins the nomination and the general election.
