I have been very quiet but have to step in here, Alex. To say that @ChroniclesMag and the Rockford Institute is Koch funded is intellectually dishonest. Chronicles via Rockford is one of the most purely “America First” institutions on the right, and was before it was popular.

I’m definitely not #DeSantis2024, but to continually antagonize people who are ideologically more “America First” than many in the Trump orbit but are sick of the drama is not a good strategy. Trump needs support from everyone possible on the right because 24 will be a bloodbath.

Also @emeriticus has an extremely valid point when he discusses personnel in the Trump Administration. I actually served the whole time & EVERY SINGLE DAY I witnessed loyal appointees being sidelined by Establishment hacks who didn’t give two craps about the Trump agenda.

The establishment hacks are still around today— it’s the harsh reality. Until he gets personnel right, it will be no different in 24. So please stop pushing all of us loyalists who were completely sidelined away farther. There are many more of us than you think.
