Danger Will Robinson! Trump is not dead yet

In a shock result for Republicans, five Republican candidates who stood up to Trump have been defeated by Pro Trump runners in preselection races, eliminating them . Remember that Trump still controls the Republican Politburo.. But it does clarify the point that a vote for ANY Republican in ANY race is a vote for Trump. No excuses..😷

A big reason Trump won in 2024 is that the media was able to reinvent him, especially on the podcasts. Pundits like Joe Rogan and Theo Von were able to get young men, mostly apolitical, to vote for Trump. These are voters who aren't registered Republicans, they're not part of MAGA. When we see Trump's support dropping, it's dropping among these people. Which is good, it means MAGA as a cult hasn't gotten any bigger since 2016.

@BohoBabe Effectively what you said is true. But it was a well funded, well connected and well orchestrated campaign by the Heritage Foundation that set him up as a figurehead they could manipulate. And its worked a treat. Even the insanity we see now is setting him up for removal at a critical point to make Vance the President and things will unfold from there. At this point, unpopularity doesnt matter to them. They arent planning on having to win that way..😷
