  • I think there are two fracture points that will make 2028 a bad year for the united right. Epstein and Israel. If the files are ever substantially released you could see mass shifts in votes this midterm, and a fracture of establishment Republicans and new wave Republicans riding on them being too young to be in the files.

    Israel is the next breaking point, as the general public turns against Israel as a state, the blackmailed and bought politicians will be stuck in a sinking ship and farther right politicians will swoop in against them. Voters may also just vote third party instead of a bought out AIPAC politician.


  • Actually the current split is closer to 4 groups. Reagan Republicans, Tea Party Republicans, MAGA diehards, and Fuentes Right. The number of real MAGA diehards is difficult to determine but I think most of them are actually members of the other three groups pretending to be diehards to gain favor with the president.

    With the president’s death you’re gonna see the diehards split into the Vance and the Eric / JR camp. The other three won’t support Vance or JR and put up other candidates. Or a total split of the party.

    I think something similar is happening to Democrats with Mainline Dems and Social Democrats, but this will be more like the original Tea Party split than what the right is doing.


  • The state has no control over the food at the pantries beyond basic health standards. The state cannot force me to give out bread when I run a soup kitchen. It can encourage me to continue with charitable acts with tax credits and subsidies, but it cannot force me to.

    Well let’s break your points down.

    1: The president does not need to pretend everything is done in the name of god. One party does this to appeal to a religious base.

    2: You do not need to swear into office on a bible, many have sworn in on nothing at all or other holy books.

    3: Every hotel is provided a bible (and often a book of mormon) by that company. This is because the company many of these hotels are owned by is a mormon company. Many hotels do not have bibles in them now.

    4: Children are not required to pray in the morning, unless you attend a religious school specifically. If you mean the pledge, that is also optional and not done in many schools.

    5: In God We Trust is an odd case yes. It was added in the 1950’s to “combat socialism.”

    6: Churches are not required to pay taxes because they are also charities that perform good acts for the poor. Other religions claim this benefit as well.
