Interesting but naive read. This new right is not going nowhere. The river of ruin runs deep.

Yeah, this copium keeps popping up.

For the people in the back: The MAGAts will _always vote (R). It doesn’t matter if _________, they’re STILL going to vote (R).

BTW, there are no “republicans” or “conservatives” (what the hell do they conserve anyway?) only the MAGAt horde. If they can make it to the polls they’ll pull the lever for their guy every time.

If MAGA can call themselves Evangelical but not care about God (which I have seen many testify to); they can be angry at gas and grocery prices and still check R down the line. They've done it regularly while getting fucked by Republican policies. Identity politics, y'all.
