    But quite obviously, MAGA has lost almost all of their power.

    That’s a wild statement to make. Everything they set in motion is still going strong. Nothing has gotten better. People are still being abducted off the streets, women are still being persecuted for exercising their reproductive rights, prices are still skyrocketing, all of our allies and trade partners are still cutting us out. A bunch of his shortsighted dumbfuck supporters might be temporarily pissed off but by the time the next election rolls around they’ll fall back in line. They’re not going to stop hating immigrants, women, and trans people just because more evidence that their dickhead leader was a pedophile came out. We already knew that anyway.

      There’s the real possibility of fracturing once Trump either dies or somehow actually sees social consequences from his years of child sex trafficking. I’d say the death is more likely, and maybe it won’t be far off.

      The two main factions of MAGA as I see it are the MTG types that are rabid fascist bigots opposed to pedophilia, and the institutional types that are rabid fascist bigoted pedophiles and pedophile supporters. It would be fun to see them destroy each other, sooner rather than later.

        They won’t destroy each other. They’ll unite on their common bigotry and let the other stuff slide as they’ve always done.
