First, I want to say that I'm thrilled, but not surprised, by the huge upset in Texas yesterday.
Between Fox News and Musk's X, the cult of MAGA has been living in an unrealistic, fantasy bubble. The con and his MAGA movement are not popular or liked by the majority of the public. The con can threaten and intimidate the media into reporting what he wants the narrative to be. He can intimidate pollsters into releasing fewer polls to hide or limit awareness of his unpopularity. But he can't bullshit the people. The people are not conned by this con artist.

(3,396 posts)Trump isnt going anywhere in the next three years.
Even if Democrats win control of the House, Trump will still control the Senate and Supreme Court, hell continue to make judicial appointments, rule via executive orders, and ignore court orders.
So it really doesnt matter how unpopular Trump and his Cult become.

(380 posts)Sorry. But the only bubble I realistically see bursting is yours. Their reality is simply impenetrable. MAGA will only die when the last Maggots die. And not a minute sooner. I hate that that's the truth, but it is.
