Just one month ago, @LafayetteBear and his cult bois were spouting "you'll be calling Kamala, MADAM PRESIDENT in a week or two."

Now his party has no soul. It's been lost. Destroyed, in part, by its own hand.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

Great article BTW.

Beneath the folds of each of our two political parties, a hidden party struggles to emerge. It’s not the woke Democratic Party of open borders and Saint Jussie Smollett, and it’s not the Make America Great Again GOP of the January 6 rioters and Matt Gaetz. It’s the Make America Normal Again party. MANA.

The MANA GOP is the party of Governor Youngkin and the traditional Republican voter. The experts told him that inflation is over, but it didn’t look that way at the checkout counter. They told him that crime rates are down, but then he read about unreported crimes on his Nextdoor app. He listened to everything the Democrats said about Trump, and replied that they were worse still.

MANA Republicans are quiet patriots. They wouldn’t have responded to calls to Make American Great Again but for the anti-Americanism on the left. They reacted when they were told that their country’s history is a list of shameful things that should never have happened, and that George Washington was an amoral monster. That’s not my country, they said.

The MANA Democrats are harder to find, but their party’s continued existence depends upon them. It’s not written in stone that a party must continue in existence. Where are the Federalists and where are the Whigs of yesteryear? The GOP has persuaded voters that the Democrats are the weird party, and if they can’t change that they’ll go the way of the Whigs.
