MAGA doesnโ€™t seem to grasp whatโ€™s happening to them - or what theyโ€™re doing to America. Their movement is systematically dismantling the foundations of American power: its alliance system, its supply chains, the dollarโ€™s reserve currency status, and the global trust in its institutions. Thatโ€™s the very infrastructure that made America the dominant power of the last 80 years. So, unless MAGA is totally and irreversibly destroyed and deep structural reforms prevent another rogue president from taking office, there is no way back. History taught us that this is how empires fall - not from external invasion, but from within. I don't think that institutional resistance to MAGA is coming through impeachment or prosecution. The only cards left to play are engineered failure and manufactured consequences: > Trump promised a booming economy and low inflation. What Americans will get is crushing inflation and an unaffordable life - turning his own voters, especially independents, against him. > Trump promised to end wars. What Americans will get is proliferation of wars, higher military spending, and compounding misery. He promised everything to everyone and the only strategy left on the table is to weaponise those promises against him. With that said, the rest of the world will suffer collateral damage - thatโ€™s unavoidable. But the calculus is brutal and I think in 20-30 years, we will realise it was the least worst option: MAGA has become an existential threat to the Western order, and the only way to save said order is to destroy them politically - completely, and permanently. The people that chose to die on that hill - for whatever personal or ideological reason - will have a very tough life regardless of the outcome. Their lives would be shit whether or not Trump & MAGA are destroyed or prevail.

Q: On the SAVE America Act, voter fraud is incredibly rare. According to Heritage, there have only been a few hundred cases of fraud out of hundreds of millions of votes. So is it worth it to risk millions of Americans from voting? LEAVITT: No need to boo. It's an honest question. First of all, I have not seen the data you provided. But why are you okay with any voter fraud?

Trump and everyone around him act like theyโ€™re above the law. They assume heโ€™ll abuse his power to protect them, and whatโ€™s truly dangerous is that this corruption has become so common people hardly even blink anymore.

Seriously Cliff? What happened to you? Military commitment to an alliance can obtain only in an atmosphere of trust . Do you think the non-US members of NATO have that sort of trust right now in the ally that says it wants to annex Canada and threatens to invade Greenland?

I'm pro-NATO. But I can't think of a single argument to refute what @MsMelChen says here. Not one. If others can, please weigh in.

Letโ€™s be real here. Europe has spent decades freeloading on American security. Even now, with every NATO member finally hitting the 2% GDP target in 2025. But beyond the financial contributions, the real rupture is philosophical and the Iran crisis has shown a spotlight on it. Europe worships process. Endless committees, consultations, and โ€œpredictability.โ€ Macron actually calls it a virtue. For Trump, this is paralysis as his style is to articulate a threat, fix a target, and act. The Americans are men of conviction and purpose. Europe on the other hand lives by bureaucratic liturgy and in high-minded abstractions. Sure, Americans might make mistakes when acting. But Europe never considers what the costs of not acting actually are. Just look at how their nations are doing on various fronts, especially on the border crisis, and you see the same cancerous rot that undergirds their foreign policy approach play out domestically. It's the same problem on a different scale. Iran is currently holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, choking 20% of global oil and spiking prices past $100 a barrel. Meanwhile, the regime is bleeding from strikes, its nuclear ambitions are still alive despite degraded capability, and its proxies are firing missiles at allies and oil tankers. If this isnโ€™t a clear and present danger to the global economy - of which Europe is a part - then I donโ€™t know what is. Yet when Washington asked to use European bases to finish the job - bases the US has defended for generations, the response was hesitation and hand-wringing. The US did strike from RAF Fairford, but only after warnings that British soil could become a โ€œlegitimate target.โ€ If you cannot agree that a theocratic regime with eschatological ambitions who have shown no restraint in hitting out at Gulf countries and threatening the worldโ€™s energy jugular is an enemy worth confronting, then what, exactly, are we allies about? Europe loves to preen about being tough on Russia. They issue condemnations and speeches and slap sanctions that hardly work to cripple the Russian economy. Now here was a chance to do something concrete: let the Americans use the bases they already pay for, help clear the Strait, and actually degrade the Iranian war machine that arms Moscowโ€™s proxies. Turmp didnโ€™t ask for boots on the ground or any kind of more offensive action. All he wanted was permission to operate from the infrastructure America has underwritten for decades. They couldnโ€™t even manage that. So can you blame the Americans for seeing NATO for what it is? A paper-tiger alliance that expects Washington to bleed and pay while Brussels and London convenes and deliberates. If Europe refuses to treat Iran as the threat it is while happily letting American power keep the Strait open and the lights on, then the alliance is already dead. Trump is simply stating the obvious and the Americans are becoming very reluctant to subsidize the European delusion any longer.

The big goal of House Rep. Ralph Norman in the South Carolina GOP gubernatorial debate last night is to keep liberals out of the state: "My biggest fear, if we have lackluster, feckless leadership, we're gonna end up like California which is the dregs of society now...We've gotta restrict South Carolina, not let everybody in." ๐Ÿคฃ

Reports now that Hegseth oversold the war to Trump and underestimated Iran's willingness to fight back. It's almost as if he's unqualified for his job. Too bad the Senate didn't have confirmation hearings; those would have proven his manifest unsuitability to lead the Pentagon.
