Going against Trump is a smart play for MTG.
Back in the day, George HW Bush called Reagan's tax cut plan "voodoo economics"
That got him a Veep slot.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Pretty sure Vance called Trump "Hitler"
Yeah but he prefaced it with "Daddy"
Daddy Hitler sounds even less appealing!
Only the media made the mistake of thinking that was negative in his mind.
Yeah but this is the Presidency sponsored by PayPal. They've been dodging responsibility and claiming other people's money is theirs for years. They just went directly to the Treasury to do it now.
He meant it as a compliment.
Republicunt infighting is entertaining if nothing else
I mean, that political power is going somewhere.
Heather Cox Richardson echoed this. That infighting with this much power is bound to occur. Hopefully it slows and distracts sufficiently while opposition unites.
Hopefully that is the outcome, although I worry that it will simply lead to even more consolidation of power
There’s power sitting around right now, waiting for a Republican to pick it up, through opposition to Trump. I don’t think she’s the one, but even so.
You're thinking of Newsom.
He has the potential to be as good a Republican president as Clinton was.
You don't think he could reach Obama's heights?
I hope she's the one, because she's also an idiot and I want to see the party of greed supporters have to watch their leaders engage in smear campaigns that bring up all the dirt.
If ONLY Trump had SUPPORTED Greene's Senate AMBITIONS she would be Fawning over the Man who she says is Costing Americans Jobs and COVERING UP FOR CHILD SEX TRAFFICKERS!
