feel better, Andy, but that won't change what has happened. MAGA now controls the GOP. Look at the mess on Capitol Hill.

The rot goes all the way down. Truth tellers are shunted aside. Insurrectionists spending their time in jail are being called "political prisoners" and "hostages" by the #3 GOP Member in the House. Cruz and Hawley are practicing their "Make MAGA love me" moves.

Why? Because they know they can't win the primary without MAGA's total belief and can't win the general without MAGA votes.

But general elections are won and lost at the margins. It's folks who say "well, my guy is ok" and vote for GOP members down ballot that provide that tiny edge needed for election. As long as they do so, the folks who know better will say "well, I'll do what MAGA wants because they'll come after me if I don't, but the GOP regulars will always come home at the ballot box and get me reelected."

Exactly three GOP members voted against the sham Mayorkas impeachment. Was your guy one of them?
