    It gives non-MAGA Republicans “permission” to also not vote for Trump

    It really doesn’t, no. A few paleoconservative war criminals taking a personal dislike to him won’t sway any member of the cult away.

    Did you not read the comment you replied to? They explicitly said “Non-MAGA”, which would be people outside of the MAGA cult, lol

          First rule of rational politics: never let demagogues self-define their position on any political axis 😉

          We prefer “conservatives.” Government to handle social issues capitalism doesn’t account for, and while they may chafe, regulation that protects the common good. No abortion or gun nonsense. I voted red in the 90’s, and now the same candidate comes in blue.

            In Canada, our conservatives are more like “Let’s see what we can privatize. Highways, healthcare, utilities…cut funding for schools and other things, but write cheques to the population every once in a while so they’ll like us”.
