I’m not that shocked by the Fetterman thing and I’m a little surprised that so many others are.

Everyone keeps talking about how Trump defies political gravity on the right, and that’s absolutely true. However, for that exact same reason, the gravity has changed on the left as well.

In consolidating power on the right and getting so much support amongst those supporters, all of that same rhetoric has also galvanized the left and codified an ardent opposition against him and his candidates.

I don’t know why people keep losing sight of that?

For the exact same reason that Trump is so popular among the far right and the Christian right, that is exactly why he is so unpopular with everyone else.

That’s the problem that the GOP faces and why it truly is a deal with the devil.

And this isn’t going to end politely or gentlemanly for the GOP. It’s going to be a hot fucking mess.

I can’t wait to see what scorched earth bullshit he and Ron DeSantis pull on each other. I just hope that DeSantis prevails just so that Trump will run as a third-party candidate and really fuck them over one last time.
