Compare the response to the MAL raid story, versus the Justice Alito flag story and you’ll fully grasp why the MAGA portion of the party is its only future.
Swampy Republicans have become so accustomed to losing both the culture wars, and the policy wars, that they seek the approval of their liberal masters so they’re the last ones on the guillotine. Liberals are so used to dog-walking old guard GOP types that they feel no need to even give them the decency of a reach-around.
That’s why liberals have been running with this bullshit Sam Alito, upside-down, flag story for weeks with absolutely zero push back from their own side, and weak pushback from ours. They run with bullshit stories for one reason, because they can.
Yet, when our “side” gets their hands on a massive, and TRUE, story about an unnecessary and unprecedented raid, for a fabricated crime, on the main political opponent of the President, during an early election cycle, at a Secret Service protected compound, and done in an unnecessarily confrontational manner that required a use of force briefing, the weak-kneed suckers in our party spend all of their energy looking for the oddest of angles to explain this abomination away.
These zeroes will be the death of our party. Addition by subtraction isn’t a thing in politics but subtraction by subtraction is. And they do nothing but drain our party of energy while the libs shit all over this country. So we must subtract them.
Unlike the media goons, Wikipedia lawyers, and policy “analysts” commenting on this abomination, I actually did this work. Warrants, and protection were my wheel house. And this is a deconfliction, legal, tactical, and protocol disaster never seen in US history. And if you’ve spent a shred of your time over the past few days defending it, then kindly exit stage left.
We really don’t need you.
