The White House has launched another taxpayer-funded television ad before the midterms, this time featuring imagery of President Donald Trump walking down a hall as audio plays of him saying “this is the final battle.”
“We will cast out the communist, Marxists, and fascists. We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media, and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all,” Trump says in the ad, echoing comments he made during a Veterans Day speech in 2023.
I don’t know about Hungary, but it’s hard to imagine GOP turning on Trump when they have basically bet it all on Trump.
The argument against convicting on January 6th was evidently “let the criminal justice system take care of it and avoid putting ourselves at odds with his fanatics”.
I suspect they similarly might be hoping for his health to catch up to him and take care of the problem without pissing off Trump fans.
I suppose they might throw Trump, Hegseth, Miller and Patel under the bus to try to give Vance some run up to 2028 and scapegoat the “bad apples” and pivot to a claimed image of some respectable, responsible party… But it seems a long shot… Vance was still very deep on on this bullshit, but most people probably are oblivious to that…
