    what’s the problem? The MAGAs are behaving exactly as they’ve been trained. The GOP made sure that MAGA was welcome and safe within the party.

    This is unfolding exactly how the GOP wants it to.

      I mean, not really. They’re at the ‘lunatics running the asylum’ stage. They underestimated how much they had radicalized their base and completely lost control of them in 2016. Now, that radicalized base is starting to be elected into office and the old guard are too afraid to try to take control of the party back.

        I would argue Yes really. Doing nothing is most definitely an active decision. Near zero right wing money thrown at undermining support for Trump.

        Exactly the way they want it.

      Hopefully a leftist wing of the dems can start doing the same. I dont’ want Schumer or Pelosi in my party.

        Sadly the “leftist wing” party in America is little more than slightly more competent fascists.
