MAGA is toast

On some level most people actually understand Rick Wilson's comment that Biden "had an externality... the pandemic... that explained inflation and high cost of living. Trump has made it worse, but in his case it was a choice."  Harris had this anchor around her neck, made some of her own mistakes, and was in an almost imossible position in terms of timing (not to mention that being a woman probably costs at least 5%, no matter what). But Trump is seen as having chosen to fuck everything up. There is no coming back from this. November will be a wipeout for MAGA. I am increasingly hopeful that we will take the Senate back, despite one of the worst Senate maps in decades.
