The MAGA Movement must survive Trump. We are in a lukewarm Civil War anyway, we may not get to 28.
I don’t disagree. However, I think openly scheming creatures such as DeSantis, who so willingly became a tool of the enemy, are certainly not any solution. Even Massie, one of the only fedgov electeds I held in some esteem (Senator Tuberville has been unexpectedly excellent) has proven himself unworthy with his recent actions (and I understand his personal issues with Trump given the undeserved criticism, but doesn’t excuse his collusion). President Trump is a generational political figure with off the charts charisma; he revived a moribund and dying party (and it has been since I became a voter in 1995). If he does not win in 2024, there will be no republic as we knew it ever again. Any political actor who places their own ambition and ego above this reality is beneath contempt. Ron DeSantis is unacceptable now, and forever in future.
