All-Out MAGA Civil War Engulfs Trump Already
Trump’s winning electoral coalition couldn’t quite make it through the season of goodwill.
I thought it was going to take until Trump was dead. Now imagine what will happen when he dies.

I know we're all itching for some good news but this is just a Twitter spat, hardly an AlL OuT cIviL wAr.
I'll believe it when they start tangibly sabotaging each other. They have a tendency to fall in line in practice.
They fall in line when they have a common, reachable enemy. As another user recently said, which I believe was wise. - paraphrased: The only reason they're fighting is because we haven't made ourselves a target.
Let's not ignore that there's a real, policy-based disagreement here. Tech companies like to be able to import top talent from wherever they can get it (and are generally correct that this is overall beneficial), while white nationalists are dead set against the idea, as it strikes directly against the very core of their values.
It's a legit disagreement, and pretty foundational.
That said, I do overall agree that we're kinda beaten at the moment, and too busy licking our wounds and regrouping to care that much about this.
MAGA doesn't want to promote of accomplish a stardard political goal like most other political parties. MAGA just wants to win. Once they've won and defeated their enemy, they need to find a new one. First, it was Obama, then Biden, Harris, immigrants, BLM, infectious disease experts, southern immigrants, and on and on...But they don't really believe their platform. It's unstable and lacks internal consistency because they say whatever to win. Once they beat their enemy, they have no goal. It all falls apart. I think the smart strategy for the next 2 years is for Democrats to stay out of the news, out of social media, and irrelevant. Let MAGA go at each other.
Lara Loomer losing her checkmark on Twitter is a bigger deal than you think it is.
Just buy a new one what's the big deal, anybody can buy those now
No you see, Elon is a "Free Speech absolutest." Which is supposed to mean MAGA can say what they want. I believe Elon just canceled her. Does MAGA finally realize that these Oligarch billionaires are going to use Trump to fuck the whole country sideways for personal gain....? No because they are apparently blind and stupid.
At the very least its fun to watch Loomer's face getting eaten.
Fuck Elon also. Looking forward to seeing how the karma plays out. 🍿
Remember how the old Soviet Union had leadership which was very opaque, and there were a whole class of "Kremlinologists" who would figure out who was in favor by how closely they were standing to the Soviet Premier in photographs of public events?
This is similar, we can figure out who is close to our new Prime Minister by how he treats them on Twitter. "X-ologists"? It's dumb, but so is everything in this timeline.
For real. There was an all out civil war in America, it happened in the 1860s.
