There’s no America First faction, that’s just a division tactic dumb people swallowed and are playing right into the lefts hands. The people you’re talking about are the “me first” faction of the right. They’re feelings above everything, very dumb and a lot like libtards in their thinking.

Nick Fuentes…… but he’s only 28 so he can’t be our president until 2036.

I think the following people SHOULD be able to continue the America First policies and agenda. They are capable and have name recognition, now are they able to not be sucked into the establishment without someone like Trump at the top remains to be seen.

JD Vance
Marco Rubio
Ron Desantis

One of those two.

Vance has zero accomplishments, was anti-Trump not long ago, and is just a sound bite guy.

MAGA is dead. About 30 to 35 percent of all voters consider themselves MAGA. It is the result of failure to deliver on his promises. Exploding national debt, high inflation, high food and home/rental properties, an incursion into the Middle East again that no one with any sense wants escalated, a BS redaction of the JFK and Epstein folders, an ever increasing surveillance state, and a lack of effort in cleaning up the intelligence services.

People like you who have blindly supported this nonsense have contributed to its demise. Perhaps if Trump had more pushback from his supporters, instead of following like a group of geese, he would have reconsidered some of his decisions.

People are hurting, the young voters are abandoning the movement in droves, and there is no end to how far our government will push us to avoid transparency and truthfulness. At the same time, Trump has added significantly to his chest and those of his children at the expense of his followers.

I did vote for the man 3 times. The alternative seemed too far left for me to consider voting for him. I did not vote for him in a primary. I voted for Ted Cruz and Ron.

I will not vote for one of his endorsements (Letlow), and I will vote for another Republican vs Mike Hohnson. It is time to burn the Republican Party to the ground.

I hope you didn’t think too hard about that diatribe.

MAGA isn’t going anywhere.

Exactly what is it that you want the "establishment" to do for the people?

That's a huge percentage. All voters? Yeah, that's huge.

I would say Tucker Carlson. I know he gets a bad rap on here for opposing Trump’s neocon second term shift, but he is still one of the most highly viewed, highly engaged with media personalities in American culture. The young people under 40 who voted for Trump and are increasingly leaving the coalition are still tuning in to Tucker.


Tucker is a grifter with no principles. He's a fad and it is fading and will continue to do so. Hating Jews and loving Muslims and Qatar is not a winning strategy in the long or short terms. Tucker is a vile man.

Tuning in does not equal support. But, let's say they do. Views change as one gets older and more mature and more life experience. There is a quote, ""If you're not a liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative by the time you're 35, you have no brain" There is a great deal of truth in that. The Tuckerites at 20 will have different views in their 40s and 50s.

No populists act on any principle except Us vs Them.

And Trump has grifted his behind off this second term.

Yet he's still got millions of people who would lie down in traffic for him. Probably dozens on this very board.

I've been calling Huckster Carlson that name for over six years, because I agree, he's completely full of it.

But that won't stop people from following him. In fact, it will probably help.

There are no substantial percentages of conservatives or liberals left. There are only leftist populists and rightist populists.

The quote is irrelevant in that context.

And you are correct. The emperor has no clothes and people will stop pretending that he does.
