“By tolerating a false January 6th narrative that exonerates Trump, and by adopting his enemies as their own, conservatives—wittingly or otherwise—have chosen a strategy not for dethroning Trump, but for keeping the party united behind him as he coasts to a third straight GOP nomination.
This, my friends, is how they got more Trump.
IT’S TIME FOR SOME CONSERVATIVES to accept that their strategy of helping the party “move on” from Trump has, like many other examples of appeasement, failed. The idea that a candidate could triangulate their way around Trump—that a conservative could outflank him with performative “own the libs” antics—was always a fantasy.”
