I truly believe this doesn't matter at all past this summer. It will be transient, they'll get over it before the year is out and they'll still come to the midterm elections next year to "prevent the socialist communist Venezuela rat eating baby killing Democrats" from getting any seats. The propaganda machine will still drive them by their hatred as it always does.
:(
I don't know, this has metastasized in a way that nothing has ever really stuck to Teflon Don before. It's gotten my one remaining MAGA facebook friend to post his first anti-Trump message that I've ever seen. It might actually stick around. I'm not saying that they won't vote Republican again, but it's making a much bigger dent than I was expecting.
And, honestly, good. I'm glad they have a line, even if that line is ridiculously far down the road of reasonable human behavior.
I want to agree with you, but the one little difference I see here is that for once the MAGAs are angry over Trump NOT hurting somebody. For years the GOP fever-swamp has been telling the MAGAs that once the truth came out, all of the Democrat pedos would be rounded up and punished at long last -- and that's not happening, and they don't know why, and they HATE it. They need to see some prominent liberals tossed in jail -- it's the only thing that will make them happy, and they're not getting it.
“Nothing that we do is going to satisfy the base,” they tell WIRED. “Even the best-case scenario, an unsatisfactory answer. So by putting wind in the Epstein sails from the beginning, we have created this problem for ourselves. An own goal, if you will. Which we can’t undo.”
Aww.
Hmmm.... They are revolting....
To me, MAGAs have always been revolting bah-dum-tss
Bless their hearts
Jesus Christ these arseholes have some fucked up priorities.
No they're not. They just approved for Emil Bove to have a hearing for a permanent position on the 3rd circuit of appeals.
Actual maga not the cuckservatives.
The White House did not return a request for comment, including on whether the president thinks anyone who doubts him on Epstein is no longer MAGA.
