It Wasn't MAGA, It Was LFSU. It Still Is.

Excerpts from my favorite wordsmith, Matt Taibbi.

"Chaos is what Trump voters asked for.  The subtext of Trump's 2016 run wasn't about making America great again.  It was LET'S FUCK SHIT UP.  Trump voters understood it as a chair through a plate-glass window, to start looting.

In a time of extreme cynicism and existential gloom, Trump is a doomsday cult, giving voters permission to unleash their inner monster.  What makes this dangerous is that the appeal isn't limited to racists.  It extends to anyone who's pissed off about anything.  Trump is the match to burn it all down.

Current-day Trump will make an argument about an unprecedented conspiracy of elites trying to remove him from office.  Uncharacteristically for him, this won't even be complete bullshit, adding fuel to his wreck-the-system message.  He remains a ratings bonanza whose instinct for seizing the lowest common denominator has, if anything, expanded in office."
