They never get tired of thinking this is it. Let’s face it, Trump could nuke an American city on purpose and his approval rating would stay above 30%.

Authoritarian regimes throughout history are rarely competent, well-run, focused administrations. So, in a democratic sense, yes, the Trump administration is crumbling and the GOP is fracturing as they’ve become a cult of personality. But it’s naive to think that such a regime can simply be corrected at the ballot box, unless that is overwhelming and overcomes manipulation of the vote, use of the court to reject elections, or simply moving to reject the democratic structures.
We’re at that point this November and it’s there that the final test of the Constitution may get a final grade.

Very interested to see if, once primary season ends towards the late summer, more frontline Republicans and those with aspirations for 2028 and beyond start making more public breaks with the President. They can’t tie themselves to a guy approaching George W Bush levels of unpopular and expect to keep their jobs for very long.

I heard that in 2017, 2018, 2019…. all the way through 2024. Im beyond believing the average American has an attention span which will result in consequences for the GOP

While I am glad that the woman feels betrayed by trump, I do not feel pity for any of them. The wool has not been pulled over their eyes, who trump is has been in plain sight for years and to claim ignorance is not an excuse. These people are not remorseful, they are regretful that what they want is not coming to fruition and the man they have invested so much in has failed.

We’ve heard „the GOP is collapsing“ since 2016, and yet here we are in 2026 with a blockade in the Middle East and a 47th President who has somehow consolidated more power than in his first term. The party isn’t „crumbling“—it’s mutating. They’ve successfully purged the „Never Trumpers,“ and the base is more locked in than ever because of the „us vs. them“ narrative surrounding the Iran conflict and the inflation crisis.

I’ve been waiting for the GOP to crumble since 2003.
I thought then that lying to send thousands of young men to their deaths for a needless war, authorizing torture and warrantless wiretapping of American citizens would lead to the downfall of the GOP. I was wrong.
The GOP has survived electing a pedophile who tried to to overthrow the democratic order to have himself installed as president. That man was re-elected president.
The GOP is not going to crumble. Fox News and other right wing media will continue to brainwash them into thinking their problems are caused by trans people, immigrants and democrats.

Love seeing this post literally two spots above a post about how Ron DeSantis has successfully banned local governments from supporting DEIA initiatives because they „discriminate against white men.“
The Tea Party created MAGA. MAGA will lead to something so much worse, with the likes of Tucker Carlson in charge

The Battle of Stalingrad ended in February 1943. Nazi Germany continued on for a little over another two years.

The GOP only collapses if something better is there to take its place. The current neoliberal Democratic Party is not good enough. Yeah, the gop is batshit crazy and overtly evil, but they only hasten the same mechanisms of wealth transfer and austerity that most democratic politicians are more than happy to abide.
People thought the GOP was done in 2008; it took them less than a decade to regain full control of the government. If Dems are serious about improving our QoL, they will push for actual leftist policy this time, not big bailouts and corporate compromises.
