I'm old enough to remember when "MAGA" stood for opposing the establishment. Now... not so much.

Really sad. The TeaParty put up more of a fight that "MAGA" did. Paper tiger.

He tried to block it coming to the floor for a vote. He was the only republican that voted against it.

Yet he voted for Bidens budget to go to the floor for a vote...

Deflect with semantics if you want. S conservative should support a Massie 100x over before he supports a Lindsey Graham. But MAGA is now the party of Tom Cotton and Lindsey Graham and Mike Amnesty Lawler. Enjoy lol

Damn, that’s bad.

It is.

Massie would have had the moral high ground if not for the lie about having Trumps endorsement.

Just another example of Massie not being who I want him to be.

Apparently there’s no good options.

Emotional nonsense. I'm talking about why the GOP abandoned him. You're hiding behind laughing emojis while angrily trying to convince people you're right with your opinion of Massie. I couldn't give a shite.

I guess having others fight your battle while hiding in your basement is much more honorable. Like when Biden did it.


None of it is honorable.

But you are defending a candidate lying about an endorsement.

It is what it is.

The only reason is because Trump told them to. That is why everyone is laughing at these people.

I'm not deflecting anything. Your implication that my support for Trump factors in Lindsey Graham at all is just a foolish premise. The use of worship only provides me with context on your headspace.

Yes, the leader of the GOP directed the party in his preferred direction. Talk about blazing new trails!

The only reason that makes you hysterical is because you can't look at it for what it is.

It's also why non KY4 residents being this invested in a PRIMARY is lunacy.


The combination of (1) outwardly rejecting one of the few small government conservatives in Congress and (2) the irrational 180 is a very salient point when discussing the state of the GOP/MAGA/AF.

Like I said earlier, after today, I have no idea what specific policy positions MAGA aligns with. They've rejected non-interventionism (Iran), America First (Israeli influence), and small government conservatism (turning on Massie for a sockpuppet who ran his campaign like Joe Biden).

"Owning the libs" only goes so far these days, and its impact is lessened by the absolute melt by MAGA (like Trump ITT) into MDS. They don't' even have "owning the x" on pure ideological grounds anymore with their massive triggering, which is simply amazing.

Its not foolish at all, it's a logical conclusion. You support Trump, he supports Graham and Lawlor and is going after the most staunch constitutionalist in Congress. That's your team now buddy. Neo con, pro amnesty uniparty puppets.

Buddy nobody here has a say in this one. You're just being message board hero as usual. The GOP decision to back a candidate that is likely to support their policy efforts more frequently is easy enough for any of you to understand. The rest of the Massie bullshite on here is just jerking each other off. I don't need you to wax poetic about Massie is simultaneously the most libertarian and most conservative guy to ever hold office.

The GOP or MAGA?

And why did this influence campaign cost so much and rely on outside money, if you think it's some natural change of the local electorate?

I hope you never pretend to support small government conservatism in the future, in that case.

Based on how this works, these are currently the same thing.

But, they're not

Take this race, for instance. With the full weight of MAGA/Trump and AIPAC they only moved the electorate a small bit. That shows the MAGA Diehards are still a minority in this district, 20-30% shifting with the wind as they're told.
