The Real McConnell (and Thune and Cruz)

Those are not the only Senators who will do anything to kill off MAGA.  

This from The Federalist on the bastards running the Senate:

...With the Iran war, the NeverTrump neocons have gotten everything they ever dreamed of — war (which they love), and a massive political quagmire for Trump that threatens to consume the rest of his presidency and destroy any future political chances of J.D. Vance and the entire MAGA/America First movement.

These people, and this includes most GOP senators, believe that Trump/MAGA is just a fever that will eventually break, and all they have to do is wait it out and then take over what’s left of the party after that. They don’t care if Republicans lose in the midterms in November. In fact, they’d welcome it. They would much rather rule over the wreckage than continue having to take a back seat to Trump or his successor....

Yes.

Milton had exactly that, with exactly the same character spouting it:

 ...Here at least
We shall be free; th’ Almighty hath not built
Here for his envy, will not drive us hence:
Here we may reign secure, and in my choyce
To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav’n.
But wherefore let we then our faithful friends,
Th’ associates and copartners of our loss
Lye thus astonisht on th’ oblivious Pool,
And call them not to share with us their part
In this unhappy Mansion, or once more
With rallied Arms to try what may be yet
Regaind in Heav’n, or what more lost in Hell?...

One of the special qualities of Satan is that he is able to look like a US Senator

“Those are not the only Senators who will do anything to kill off MAGA.”

Trump is the culprit. He has yet to defund Israel, he continues to fight a war in Iran that his own supporters want to end, and he refuses to release all of the Epstein files.

Cold stone truth.

Furthermore, the author of the piece makes NO effort to address that Stephen Miller, the most powerful aide in Trump’s inner circle, strongly supports the military campaign and hardline strategy against Iran.

So why doesn’t Trump have the guts to get rid of Miller, remove those officials with known ties to the “Deep State”, and stop funding Israel?
