> This is one of the fissure-points in the GOP coalition.

What is this "GOP coalition" of which you speak??

Perhaps you mean the GOP circular firing squad?

What is this "GOP coalition" of which you speak??

Very simply defined as those Republicans who voted for Trump in 2024 - quite a few of which didn't even like him.

There is a big fissure -- that gets less attention than most -- between the small government/limited spending conservatives, and the populists. In the 70's, the majority of the latter would have voted for Democrats.

"Perhaps you mean the GOP circular firing squad?"

Please do not propagandize.

When you have universal healthcare/commiecare republicans on one side,

And you have constitutional/limited government republicans on the other side,

there is no circle.

And since we have resoundingly proved there is no circle, there cannot by definition be any circular firing squad.
