(118,683 posts)performance artists every week, sometimes more. I include Trump in that group of fluffers. They need red meat. And getting affirmed with authoritarian/rugged individual/hateful/death of neighbours narratives alienates suburbs. So they have to be Baskin Robin's with 31 flavors of Republicans. Seems being one with the Trump cult does not adequately lead to a field of viable candidates.

(118,683 posts)and having to feed them a steady diet of bull**** will piss of suburban voters in swing districts. Strict MAGA narratives make the Republican Party brittle. And they have to figure out how to have a buffet of ideas for voters when the MAGA base will cry foul at anything that sounds not fascist.
