To the extent that MAGA can be said to have a point, I think this is it. Deep underneath the arrogance and scapegoating, they’re calling bullshit on institutions that have become self-licking ice cream cones.
I think there’s some truth to that criticism. I would prefer to see the institutions reformed democratically than destroyed by fiat. I contend that sacrificing rule of law is deeply counterproductive. But the core complaint that things aren’t working? There’s some truth to it.
- insane_dreamer 2y agoThe core complaint is by no means new, and the Trump/Musk "solution" is worse than the problem.
