Tora!,\u201d\u00a0\u201cI fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other words, if Democrats thought Trump\u2019s base was fired up \u2014 thanks to record inflation, skyrocketing gas prices, rampant crime, and a non-existent border, not to mention a well-supported conviction that the 2020 election was indeed \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/10\/12\/the-2020-election-wasnt-stolen-it-was-bought-by-mark-zuckerberg\/\">rigged<\/a>\u201d \u2014 the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago just poured fuel on that fire.<\/p>\n<p>As a legal expert told\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/newsletters\/playbook\/2022\/08\/09\/after-the-raid-gop-torches-fbi-hugs-trump-00050476?cid=hptb_primary_0\">Politico<\/a>, \u201cIf they raided his home just to find classified documents he took from The White House, he will be re-elected president in 2024, hands down. It will prove to be the greatest law enforcement mistake in history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The regime\u2019s decision to take out Trump Banana Republic-style was woefully miscalculated. The GOP base has never been more unified against the establishment and its\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/04\/20\/new-documents-suggest-democrats-sicced-the-cia-on-their-domestic-enemy-the-president\/\">security-state minions<\/a>\u00a0as it is now \u2014 and never more sympathetic to Trump. For years they\u2019ve watched Trump be targeted by the intelligence community, from the FBI\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/national-security\/two-4-warrants-letting-fbi-spy-ex-trump-aide-carter-n1121406\">falsifying FISA warrants<\/a>\u00a0to spy on his campaign to the DOJ peddling the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/18\/spygate-101-a-primer-on-the-russia-collusion-hoaxs-years-long-plot-to-take-down-trump\/\">Russia collusion hoax<\/a> before and during his presidency. Thankfully, all these efforts have not worked, but its latest effort to disqualify him from running for president is the final straw.<\/p>\n<p>With the raid on Mar-a-Lago, the regime made Trump a martyr. To his base, Trump represents a symbolic repudiation of the partisan hacks that make up the intelligence community. The more the FBI and DOJ go after Trump, the more his base will invoke his name as a rallying cry.<\/p>\n<p>And therein lies the reason why Trump is the heir apparent to the GOP\u2019s 2024 presidential nomination. Trump didn\u2019t start the fight with the intelligence community, but he intends to finish it. None of the presidential hopefuls such as Kristi Noem, Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz, and, yes,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2022\/08\/former-president-donald-trump-wins-cpac-straw-poll-for-2024\">even Ron DeSantis<\/a>, bear the same battle scars as Trump with the intelligence community. The fight is his alone. And Americans of all stripes will rally to his cause.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>Victoria Marshall is a staff writer at The Federalist.
