I think the left will keep losing until they stop complaining about us getting rid of murderers and drug dealers

I think they will be learning their lesson over the next year or two and pivot though, which will prove a challenge to a right wing that essentially has no unified ideological vision for the future

@realcaseyrollins

Well, I don't know, I would say putting America first and government transparency are ideologically pretty good.

@Klang

> putting America first

An absolutely useless and meaningless phrase for the purposes of this discussion

@realcaseyrollins

What do you consider an ideological vision?

Ideally, we want to remove all criminals that pose a threat to our way of life.

Ideally, we want to make our border strong to keep criminals out.

Ideally, we want to put America first and strengthen our workforce and economy.

@Klang Strong border and deporting violent criminals *are* political policies, but "put America first" and "strengthen the economy" are goals.

But the thing about #MAGA is #Trump could oppose all of that and they'd still support him, so it's not really about any of that at the end of the day.

@realcaseyrollins

Trump is these things and these are the things that he is doing.

As far as MAGA being Lemmings to Trump, I strongly disagree. But, the only way to really know is if Trump actually were to oppose what he's doing which would mean he would oppose himself.

I doubt this will ever be put to the test.

MAGA has the mandate and Trump is the facilitator and I don't foresee that changing.

Democrats can keep falling up until they disappear from sight. The are obsolete now.

But we don't have to wonder. We've watched Trump pivot on issues and seen his champions go right along with him, as if he's always had those opinions and he was always right.

YES Trump does oppose himself. He's really inconsistent, sometimes switching opinions within a single interview.
