I think we have seen that MAGA isn’t one body, that there were the tech-bro MAGA Doge edgelords, and the MAGA who opposed them.

This is the point in every “successful” movements story where they have won the struggle for power, and start receiving the bounty. And realise that the leadership idea of bounty doesn’t match their expectations.

Just like a soldier who goes hard for the recruiter’s promises of glory and honour, but realises it’s a life of being an utter bastard, and dying in a pool of their own blood and shit and their friends body parts.
