[It would be a big loss for MAGA if Tulsi left.]
That would depend on whether you think the essence of MAGA is Teddy Roosevelt or Robert Taft. Given Trump’s endorsement of both the Golden Fleet and the revival of battleships, in an echo of TR’’s Great White Fleet of battleships, Trump’s preference seems clear. As president, TR was involved in 6 interventions in the Western Hemisphere. Before the presidency, he resigned his position as Assistant Navy Secretary to fight in the Spanish-American War, became famous for leading the Rough Riders in pitched battle as the solitary horseman (presenting a large and every visible target to enemy riflemen) in the unit. He also brought the Philippine-Anerican War to a victorious close, which included exemplary atrocities missing from less successful small wars later on.
