I look forward to MAGA continuing, but let me explain.
Republican voters will continue to primary these extremists that are now showing to be absolutely unelectable. They can’t win general elections. This should continue to lock Republicans out of office and allow a progressive movement some foothold.
I hope they hold on to the MAGA grift until it finally kills their party
They absolutely can win. When Trump dies and we get more normal looking fascists, they will win again.
Most of them are not as crazy as trump and some others. But there are plenty who support fascism who are electable.
Remember, they largely control the media.
It took extraordinary Natalie craziness from trump to get us less than a two third majority. It should have been almost unanimous. But it’s still not enough to impeach and remove.
This is a good day Don’t get me wrong. But in the bigger picture, it’s not nearly enough.
It probably won’t kill their party long-term. But, what I hope is that as a result of their losses the coalition breaks down and the libertarian, free market, anti-regulation, pro-immigration, athiest / agnostic wing splits from the christian conservative, pro-tariff, anti-immigrant group.
If that happens and there are 2 conservative parties, first-past-the-post will mean that neither one will get a majority and even in conservative areas the democratic candidate will win.
Me, I’m waiting for the end of MAGA and the knock-on effect it will have on neofascism around the world.
This feels more like edging.
Putin’s Russia is still pushing it wherever they can.
As are American fascists.
Even moreso, in fact, partly because they have much more money to throw at it.
They are part of MAGA. So if MAGA dies, Putin and their cronies would as well.
Cut the tree’s trunk, and the branch will die. But cut the branch, and the tree trunk won’t die.
Which one is the branch and which is the trunk? I’m not even really sure.
