Like these young Trump voters. TikTok is where they get their news and Rogan is who they listen to: https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/18/politics/video/ufc-trump-fans-digvid

A bunch of them helped Trump get back in the WH. Not exactly risk-averse in my book.

Greene on Monday described these actions as a threat against Trump's "mandate."

That mandate calls for actions Democratic states must accept, Greene argued, such as the mass deportation of "illegal invaders" and preventing trans children from playing sports.

The funny thing is that MTG is getting less and less of a "mandate" from GA-14 for all of her crap: In 2020 she got 74.6 percent of the vote, in 2022 she got 65.9, and in 2024 she got 64.4. Keep it up Marge.

He did a lot. The IRA law got a ton of green investments and enterprises going, including attracting businesses from across the globe. But that's all gone now with Trump.

If the US is not a third-world country, then why do they do so many third-world country things?

Nobody wants this, except for the conservative policy makers attempting to create the next generation of brainwashed youth.

Turns out it's a very successful strategy: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna179019

But now they have the President, Congress, and SCOTUS on their side, so I highly doubt anything will be done about this.

 

The media power brokers in the new Trump administration are different and more powerful than those during the first Trump presidency. They are younger, more visual, less established in Washington, and lean more toward MAGA conservative principles over traditional Republican ideals.

 

The deeper they dig into federal and state election results, some Democrats are coming to a harsh, humbling conclusion: America rejected soft liberalism.
