Unlike most humans, he appears never to waste a moment indulging self doubts, examining his navel, back-tracking, or apologizing. His supreme confidence in his own judgment inspires confidence in others who share his views and aspirations. And even when he's wrong, his refusal to ever admit it provides a certain level of assurance to those who are counting on him to be right.

As part of that influence, Kevin Roberts -- president of the powerful Heritage Foundation and a key influence on Trump's policy decisions -- earlier this year visited Paris to speak to what he called "leaders of the French right", whom he declined to name. Roberts said during the trip in May that, while the foundation did not officially represent the US government, it could still knit together a network of ideologically aligned groups.

He was listening to the Limbaugh shit on the radio and working with people who displayed the characteristics of MAGA. After Trump was elected in 2016, he really started to get weird. He would come home spouting bullshit, and he was always contrary, confrontational, and negative. It was weird. I loved him a little less each day. We had been married for 38 years when we finally divorced, and he wasn't the same person anymore. I couldn't stand to be intimate with him anymore.

Zohran Mamdani's election was not as surprising as his primary win in June, and since then, Republicans have had time to adjust to the idea of a young, charismatic idol espousing a new and exciting message for the Democratic Party. On Tuesday and Wednesday, though, instead of responding with new policy ideas to excite their own base, they mostly responded by returning to old territory: bald, ugly Islamophobia.

Last week, MAGA had a total anti-Indian meltdown on social media, revealing a deep, ugly racism toward South Asians. It comes amid the first real rebellion about rampant and increasingly open antisemitism within the MAGAverse, creating a massive rift between traditional conservatives and a younger, rabidly anti-Jewish contingent called groypers whose leader, Nick Fuentes, recently posted that he is "team Hitler."

🔥 Full coverage and conversation on Politics A Facebook post from a MAGA voter on SNAP is going viral after she called out her mother-in-law for refusing to lend her grocery money because she decided to vote for Donald Trump. 'I'm so anxious about this whole shutdown. My husband's [a] veteran using his GI bill for school. We get food stamps since I'm disabled and he's in school,' the post read.

Let's take for example this $40 billion bailout for Argentina. That's probably one of the grossest things I've ever seen and I have no idea who is telling our great president, our America First president that this is a good idea because honestly it's a punch in the gut to all of our American cattle ranchers and they are furious and rightfully so, and at the same time I can't think of another country that's further away from the United States of America than Argentina.

Veeps let the president be presidential, the calm and resolute leader of the nation, while taking on the "attack dog" role themselves, tending to the dirtier, more emotional work of pure partisan politics. Vice-presidents spend a lot of time at foreign funerals, of course, but also a lot of time at party fundraisers and second-tier campaign events around the country.

Point is, is that they are scrapping and grasping at straws because they have nothing else: Laugh at them! Stephen Miller is a clown! I've never seen that guy in real life, but he looks like he's, like, 4 10. And he looks like he is angry about the fact that he's 4'10. And he looks like he is so mad that he is 4 10, that he has taken that anger out on at any other population possible. Like, laugh at them!

"Where are all the red hats - am I going to run into Steve Bannon?" asked one of my guests as we peered around the room at Butterworth's, the buzzy, much-publicized MAGA hangout up on Capitol Hill. His voice was urgent, even kind of excited, and he spoke in a loud, hissing whisper, like an eager tourist out on safari for the first time waiting for the lions to arrive.

Of course, there's no question about it. The Jews spread from this land to various parts of Europe, to the Middle East, and elsewhere, but we never, never forgot this land. We said, Next year in Jerusalem, next year in Jerusalem.' My great-grandfather came here in the 19th century. Most of the Palestinians who are alive today came after him, Netanyahu replied, adding:

First the piece of content, then everyone hops on, makes it about them and puts their own meaning on it, and then all the players double down into another culture war, more content, clippable, meme-able, performative. Every now and then people remember that a tragedy has happened, and there's a bit of performative decorum. And then more content arrives in, and dopamine zings.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) rejected being responsible for promoting political violence with her rhetoric, insisting it is President Donald Trump and MAGA pushing a culture of violence following the killing of Charlie Kirk. Crockett joined The Breakfast Club radio show on Friday where she rejected accusations from the right and MAGA that Democrats' rhetoric promoted violence against Kirk.

Jones raged at Shroyer and mocked his complaints about him. He would try to control the show.' He wouldwhatever, total lie. And then as all the articles come out, Jones censored Shroyer on Trump criticism and Israel.' So let's see if Shroyer comes out and apologizes, Jones said in a clip of his own, adding: Oh no, he's gonna say, I didn't really exactly say that.

Eight months ago, if you said that the second coming of MAGA would, in broad daylight, wheel the Confederacy back in, you would have been called an alarmist. It would have seemed like overblown anxieties typical of the antiracist wingnuts or the woke to say that those who sought to make America great again would, like the first MAGA movement, the Redeemers, attempt to re-stage slavery.

Kash Patel and Pam Bondi, in six months, will not be in the DOJ and at the FBI if these indictments haven't happenedperiod. That I can guarantee you. And I'm not saying they're villains yet; I'm not saying they are weak yet. I'm just telling you right now that the American people want action. They want indictments, they want justice, they want retribution for what these crooks have doneopen and shut, raged Jones on his online show.

Bondi's last appearance as a guest on Fox News was with Sean Hannity on June 30th, days before her DOJ and the FBI released a joint memo concluding that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself and did not keep a client list.

Laura Loomer, a prominent MAGA influencer, has unprecedented power over Trump's administration, causing significant changes, including the ousting of at least 15 officials in response to her online criticisms.
