“How does a Republican lose by 14 points in a safe conservative Texas state Senate seat that President Trump carried by 17 points in 2024? Answer: When there’s a voter backlash against the Trump Administration, notably its mass deportation debacles,” the Journal wrote, describing the special election in Tarrant County.

It could also be the raping of children…

What bends eventually snaps…

One of these days it’ll be like GW Bush and everyone is going to claim they never supported him and didn’t really understand why the rest of the party did.

And it’s going to happen in an instant.

Without the cult part of maga i would agree but the republican fear the monster they created and is private army of cultist too much to do or say anything.

As for maga themselves he could rape their own child in front of them and they will smile and clap hand to encourage him

…

Some of us remember what it was like after 9/11…

If you think this is a cult that’s never happened before, you just don’t remember what it was like back then. They didn’t just have Republicans, they had 99% of the country.

If we can bounce back from that, we can bounce back from this.

Like, not saying shit isn’t terrible right now, it is.

But c’mon, be realistic. Even the racism and bigotry was worse after 9/11

We didn’t bounce back from that. Obama renewed or expanded on the worst of bush’s policies for another 8 years. We ratcheted hard to the right. Trump is a symptom of the illness we caught in 2001.

The illness predates 2001. 9/11 was a result of Post WW2 foreign policy, remember! The US is an imperialist nation, fascism is imperialism turned inwards. This was inevitable all the way back to the nation’s founding. The destiny was truly manifested.
