The cult of MAGA live in a bubble that is about to burst [View all]

First, I want to say that I'm thrilled, but not surprised, by the huge upset in Texas yesterday.

Between Fox News and Musk's X, the cult of MAGA has been living in an unrealistic, fantasy bubble. The con and his MAGA movement are not popular or liked by the majority of the public. The con can threaten and intimidate the media into reporting what he wants the narrative to be. He can intimidate pollsters into releasing fewer polls to hide or limit awareness of his unpopularity. But he can't bullshit the people. The people are not conned by this con artist.
