Nikki is offering something like Trumpian “stability” - she wants many of his policies but none of “chaos,” meaning vulgar and disgusting tweets, over bigotry and misogyny, etc.

But that’s not what Trump’s army wants.

DeSantis was offering a younger Trump, essentially the same policy-wise but with more self-control (no bankers boxes full of classified docs in his privy, etc.).

But that’s not what Trump’s army wants.

They want cruelty, including at southern border. They want the barbed wire up, and the floats blocking river passage, and guns trained in them.

The don’t believe anyone is seeking asylum - they are all criminals. Criminal men and women. Even the babies are criminals. They want them to be shot, and/or drowned. They want violence. And Trump gives them that. His reptilian brain not only sense the darkness in his followers, but he’s not afraid to draw that darkness out. January 6 is ample proof of that. And their conjoined darkness has taken over the Republican Party, completely. Steamrolled it. His army of darkness came back from the dead, when we thought it was over after January 6. He’s darker and stronger than ever, even though more adled. Jamie Dimon and like billionaires have already donned Gino suits for him. So get out and vote, my friends. Or January 6 morphs into his Reichstag fire, he seizes power once again, only worse, and he’ll hold onto it with a death grip for God knows how long.
