Is there a proper thread already started to compile and document all the cracks in the Trump/Maga wall? To me it feels like we need a catch all thread for the inevitable downfall of Trump/Maga. For example, Dr. Heather Cox Richardson’s current letter from an American is illuminating on that front.
Especially the bits about Indiana state senator Greg Walker, “a Republican who is standing firm on his refusal to vote in favor of redistricting. “I was taught as a child the difference between right and wrong,” Walker told The (Columbus) Republic, “and this is just wrong on so many levels.”
Walker said Trump invited him for an Oval Office visit on November 19. Walker declined, suggesting the invitation violated the Hatch Act, which prohibits federal employees from using public resources for partisan purposes. He said he would have reported the violation to federal authorities “if I thought that there was anyone of integrity in Washington that would follow through on my accusation and actually cause someone to lose their job over it.”
He continued: “How does [Trump] have the time to mess with a nobody like me with all of the important matters that are to take his attention as the leader of the executive branch in this nation? There is no way that he should have time to have a conversation with me about Indiana mapmaking when that’s not his business, for starters. But secondly, doesn’t he have anything better to do? I can make a big list of things that are more important for him to focus on.”
Mid-decade redistricting was “the president trying to save his own skin by holding a majority in Congress,” Walker said. “It’s so that he’s not impeached again. That’s all this is about.”
Other obvious cracks include MTG quitting; Lousy polling Re:Trump; Newsom and DeSantis joining together to denounce Trump offshore drilling; etc.
There are various threads already going strong documenting loads of Trump Maga B.S.
At the risk of jinx, I just thought there may be a need or desire for a catch-all “Trump going down” and “Downfall of Maga” thread.
I’ll delete ASAP if this falls flat.
