Out of Many, One

We don't really think anyone is going to take the nomination from Donald Trump, which is a sad thing to say about the Republican Party who back him. Even with DeSantis in the wings, who has old-guard Republicans blowing smoke in his ear, not even MAGA will back him. To be clear, it’s not because he’s too extreme, but because Trump told them not to. DeSantis is kind of losing on all fronts right now anyway. So who’s the next proposed divider-in-chief, courtesy of the Republican Party? The next person to rise on the right will have to come through Donald Trump and a MAGA crowning ceremony.

Tangentially related, we need a lot more infrastructure or laws that help protect us as a society. What MAGA has done is highlight the fact that decorum used to be enough to run this country. Once we we the people that actually majority of people get power back we need to do some serious seriously thinking about how things are going, and put whatever laws in place we need to in order to keep people like Trump on a short leash.

And that’s sad.
