re: MAGA is dead, stick a fork in it. Has been successfully co-opted

The sad thing is the GOP voters gave Trump the White House with a nice electoral vote victory, the House, the Senate and has SCOTUS
but as soon as he assumed the White House the Kusher faction moved in and co-opted the MAGA agenda. Loyalty only goes one way I guess.
Yup. You would have thought, "Hey -- now we have the Presidency, Congress, SCOTUS -- let's cook!" But no. We got Dem-spending from the GOP -- "Big Beautiful Honkin' Bill". What phonies.
Ku$h is obviously exploiting his dual loyaltie$ and no friend of the USA. But Trump didn't need his $kulking, creepy $IL to help him fugetabout "making America great". He's was doing that immediately as you know.
Another reminder that Trump first day of his Presidency made his very public priority (inexplicably) introducing tyranny-advocate tech bros Ellison and Altman. They are tasked with enslaving America via mandatory AI Biometric ID, harvesting every American's most intimate data, THEN using AI to watch us and enforce "proper behavior" via "Social Score" data. This is bout making Skynet and Klaus Schwab Great Again -- not "America".

If Newsome and Trump got married, STDtiger would be in heaven.

I’d have to see it to believe it.

Would whomever or whatever is actually pulling the strings either be of leftist leaning or rightist leaning, an either/or situation, and as such the resulting power struggle between the two differing factions/interests? Or is it more a “uniparty” situation, thus power struggle wouldn’t or doesn’t play into it?
IMO neither a Left vs Right thing. Your assumption is correct -- both parties (as well as certain high profile members) know their respective role for public consumption. That's the paradigm with which we are presented: Dem vs GOP. Good guys vs Bad guys. The "party fight" is window dressing. Always has been. The string-pullers are in Europe.

it would seem in the situation of uniparty type regime, and those who are actually pulling the strings essentially have absolute power, then why do we even ever see such highly contentious elections?
Yeah. To give us the illusion of choice and a vote that "matters".

It wouldn’t seem to matter one way or another whether it’s a Democrat or Republican in office…..they would be “following” the same “orders” either way, correct? Is it all precisely scripted Theater?

I am glad someone gets it. The two party system is a scam. It's an illusion of choice but both parties serve the same masters and donors. They will differ on meaningless issues like transgenders and abortion but for the shite that actually matters they are in alignment.
Way too many are caught up in the binary trap. When I criticize Trump I always get the "What are you going to do vote Kamala and Democrats?" No, I will just stay home and not vote at all. There is a 3rd option you know, We aren't all forced to show up and vote for one the two parties.

Stupefying. So you’re so confidently asserting that it doesn’t matter whether Trump or Harris is President, plus or minus a few “meaningless issues,” there’s no measurable difference? Yeah, proudly count me as one who doesn’t “get it” on that one.

On some social issues, sure. Fiscally, its all the same.
Both Trump and Biden contributed a similar amount to the fiscal abomination in 4 years, there is no difference here.

I’m trying to discern the basis of there being so little difference that it’s essentially pointless to even go vote. It would seem to take a pretty strong explanation of the extreme lack of differences/distinctions amongst the candidates to warrant that significant a position.

Cassidy has looked to make amends with President Trump after he became one of seven GOP senators to vote to convict the president in his 2021 Senate impeachment trial after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
The two-term GOP senator has since tried to repair his relationship with the president, including backing some of Trump’s more controversial nominees, such as Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in his confirmation vote earlier this year.
The ads I’ve seen are replays of his previous campaign ads where he wrapped himself in the American flag and blathered on about he and President Trump were going to fix everything.

Fiscally they all lead to the same place.

That’s your proposed basis for abdicating your “duty” as an American citizen to participate/contribute to the electoral process? Of course I’m being a little hyperbolic with my phraseology there, but I’m thus far unimpressed (or unmoved, if you will) with the proposed justification for the decision to abstain, for the stated reason that it’s essentially a exercise in futility, as the net difference between the two candidates (or whichever two candidates, any given election) is at best negligible.

This is my favorite part. What are some of these loopholes? And who, specifically, are these country owning elites?

If you start seeing decent conservatives as the problem, maybe you are the problem.
