Maybe not, but our I Q.'s are way, way, way above 69.

Lol, apparently not.

Well, if you create a vaccum something else fills that void. That something could be worse. With Trump we know that we're dealing with a megalomaniacal sociopath/psychopath.

Also, if we sent them to another galaxy this would an even greater sin than MAGA. We would inflict that galaxy with an evil worse than AIDS and there would never be a a cure.

But not MAGA

Evangelicals are the key demographic for MAGA. It’s why Trump was pushed to pick Mike Pence. But it’s roots can be traced deeply into US fringe politics up through the KKK America First isolationist movement and John Birch Society with its ties to the Koch family. Unfortunately McCain was talked into uncorking the populist genie variant with Caribou Barbie. Trump fully jumped on board this new right wing populism with his embrace of the racist tinfoil hat lie of birtherism, which Roger Stone helped him to weaponize as a political tool.

Why are we talking "believe" like if this is a religion?

So if given a choice in next election between Trump and Biden, if I would choose Trump, then I’m a MAGA?

If you're a conserverative but not a MAGA, thr correct vote in that case would be to write in Ronald Reagan.

Um, no. You are MAGA if you write in RR because that means you are willfully obtuse about the GOP whittling away our democracy. That you'd rather write in a dead person over supporting a the only "normal" party left means you are MAGA all the way.

But if you vote for Trump or one of him supporters, you are undeniably MAGA.

Disagree. Even Liz Cheney supported his policies.

That's a great summary.

Agree this is a good summary. This part of the party existed for years and the most prominent candidate representing it was Pat Buchanan, but the GOP was able to keep it in check until Palin and then Trump’s rise - remember he influenced the 2012 election too.

I asked the question, and Trumpism shares a lot of qualities with religion IMO.

Buchanan was the public face of a virulent paleoconservative blend of nativism and anti-semitism

Old enough to remember the Liz Cheney who cynically leveraged homophobia as a wedge issue, refused to denounce birtherism and was an unapologetic neocon warmonger. Just your average “arch conservative” who thought she’d become Speaker one day.

Anyone who voted for Trump in 2020 and/or would do it again in 2024.

Even though I don't understand, I'm willing to forgive the 2016 voters who saw the error of their ways.
