a New York Times/Siena College poll of registered voters on Friday found that Trump’s approval rating is 42%, and just 29% among independent voters. More than half of voters said Trump is “exceeding the powers available to him”, and 59% of respondents said the president’s second term has been “scary”

    Nah, MAGA is a cult of personality, and when he dies, MAGA will inevitably die, too. They’ll try to keep it alive, but the loyalty was 100% to Trump, and there is no viable second choice, no matter how much they delude themselves that they will be the chosen successor.

    When HitlerPig assumes room temperature, the knives will come out, and Vance, Jr, Stephen “PeeWee Himmler” Miller, Steve "Unwiped Asshole"Bannon, Josh “Running Man” Hawley, Chuck “Get Off My” Grassley, Marjorie “Battletoad” Greene, and a thousand others will compete in a Battle Royale that will be fun to watch.

      No.

      The hate was always there, the racism is marrow deep for most of them.

      When they say ‘Make America Great Again’, they mean 2 eras:

      1. The 1950s when women and Browns knew their placd

      2. The 1850s, when they were originally taught their place.

        I’m not saying Racism will die with HitlerPig, but MAGA will.

        There was a time when the KKK was a major political force in America, and they eventually decreased in influence, and went underground. The only difference is that MAGA has become the ruling political philosophy of the nation, something that the KKK never achieved, and we should endeavor to completely purge it from society. The activist racists are going to have to start all over, and find a new vehicle for their hate.

        • The KKK never achieved it openly but Woodrow “Screens birth of a nation at the Whitehouse” Wilson was pretty damned close.

          Also did you know that the KKK had an MLM during the 1920s, it was considered weird even then.
