    Whether it is worth reading or not, it is, I think, worth showing how quickly things are fracturing. I really didn’t think it would start crashing down so quickly. They all hate each other, but I thought they would at least make it to the inauguration before they started getting the knives out.

    Now you have a Lara Loomer camp and an Elon Musk camp and I don’t know that this is going to be easily fixed.

    And like I said, imagine what this is going to be like when Trump dies.

      I expect when he dies whoever takes power will start a witch hunt looking for foul play (regardless of cause of death) in an attempt to maintain the cult of personality, and maybe declare martial law.

          I think it honestly could happen right away. Once he’s in office why not deem him unfit and have Vance step up. Someone way easier to direct and message with.

              Oh I agree, but do they care? Those people have served there purposes by putting Republicans in control of all branches of government, they don’t need their support. And with an actual government response they could shut down another Jan 6 easily.

      Loomer is disposable to the movement is how that will be fixed. She’ll be on a stage next to Liz Cheney by next month.
