President Trump and the GOP are paying a huge price for ignoring the alt-right faction of the MAGA coalition. You need the younger voters, especially young men, who voted for him because he represented a potential for positive change in their lives. You can denounce Thomas Massie, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens, et. al., but don’t expect the millions of people who listen to their podcasts to support you. Higher energy and fertilizer prices and their effects on gasoline, diesel, food, and other commodities were triggered by the Iran War. The mullahs should not have nuclear weapons, and Iran is a proxy for Russia and China. However, Trump miscalculated his odds for a quick victory and the Iranians partially shut down the Straits of Hormuz. The lower middle class and working class voters who supported Trump in the hope of better economic conditions were disappointed. Between a disaffected alt-right, blue collar voter desertion, and the RINO faction defecting to the Democrats, you wind up with the disaster we are witnessing.
We have to start thinking about 2028 as the Ds will be there with a vengeance. I think that even though Vance was right in opposing the Iran war, either Rubio or Gov. De Santis may be far better candidates.
