| "But when it comes to the general election, the result was also a remarkable commentary on Trump — the fact that so many voters who felt so meh about Haley turned out to register what amounted to protest votes." |
There have always been raging a$$holes. You can’t please them because they don’t want to be pleased. They like being raging a$$holes. |

I hope MAGA keeps it up with this kind of rhetoric. It alienates some of the voters that they really need. Remember when Kari Lake told McCain Republicans to "get the h*ll out" of her rally? That really worked well for her. The MAGA people completely overestimate how many people think like they do. They live in an echo chamber and are in disbelief when they lose statewide or nationwide elections. What works in crazy Congressional districts does not work on a larger scale. |
