MAGAworld pans Stefanik

Donald Trump has called Elise Stefanik “a new Republican star,” a “smart communicator” and — perhaps his highest praise — “tough.”

But the MAGA faithful aren’t so sure.

Within minutes of Trump’s endorsement of the New York congresswoman for GOP conference chair on Wednesday, top MAGA voices erupted in anger — a rare break with the former president. The invective aimed at Stefanik, who was perceived to be insufficiently conservative and a relative newcomer to the Trump cause, continued to zoom through the MAGA-sphere on Thursday.

The Columbia Bugle — an anonymously-run Twitter account with nearly 179,000 followers, including high-profile Trump movement influencers — described Stefanik as “a slightly less annoying America Last Republican.” Lou Dobbs, the former Fox Business show host who was one of Trump’s fiercest cable television supporters, dismissed her as a “RINO.”

Others, like pundits Ann Coulter and Raheem Kassam, editor in chief of the populist online outlet National Pulse, went on a retweeting spree, highlighting writer after writer, tweet after tweet, questioning Stefanik’s commitment to the Trump movement’s core tenets, particularly on immigration.

1. How ironic it would be if, despite her come-lately sycophantic embrace of Trump, that MAGATs

foiled her power-lust.

[enough]

2. She just has to change her hair color. Go blonde. NT

[Bettie]

3. She's not wild-eyed enough for

the MAGATs and she's a woman, they hate that.

I'm sure they'd rather have Matt Gaetz.

4. So she voted with Trump like 20% less than Cheney

But who in the republican party cares about ideology anymore? Its all about kissing the brass ring.

5. fuck them all. comparing is like deciding which pile of dogshit is better

6. Pathetic. What a waste of an education

She has a Harvard degree and she could write her own ticket of success anywhere, yet she ties herself to an insurrectionist racist traitor punk.

She will probably learn to regret it when people like me tell her to get the f*ck out of my store or restaurant you insurrectionist fascist lowlife, and don't ever come back.

7. It's the MAGAts version of the French Revolution. Everyone is at fault.
