Most Republican Voters Aren't Loyal Trumpists, Suggests Survey
https://reason.com/2023/08/21/most-r...ggests-survey/

Possibly good news for 2024, perhaps...

To tease out more who makes up the modern conservative electorate, the Times divided Republican and Republican-leaning voters into six categories, defined by their feelings about the former and would-be-future president as well as their policy positions:

The Moderate Establishment (14%). Highly educated, affluent, socially moderate or even liberal and often outright Never Trump.

The Traditional Conservatives (26%). Old-fashioned economic and social conservatives who oppose abortion and prefer corporate tax cuts to new tariffs. They don't love Mr. Trump, but they do support him.

The Right Wing (26%). They watch Fox News and Newsmax. They're "very conservative." They're disproportionately evangelical. They believe America is on the brink of catastrophe. And they love Mr. Trump more than any other group.

The Blue Collar Populists (12%). They're mostly Northern, socially moderate, economic populists who hold deeply conservative views on race and immigration. Not only do they back Mr. Trump, but he himself probably counted as one a decade ago.

The Libertarian Conservatives (14%). These disproportionately Western and Midwestern conservatives value small government. They're relatively socially moderate and isolationist, and they're on the lower end of Trump support compared with other groups.

The Newcomers (8%). They don't look like Republicans. They're young, diverse and moderate. But these disaffected voters like Democrats and the "woke" left even less.

The "right wing" and the "blue collar populists"—which make up a combined 37 percent—are loyal Trump supporters. The others in the coalition have more mixed or even negative views of Trump.

Popular far reichwing 'personality', Charlie Kirk thinks that the US is responsible for the rise of Nazi Germany by joining in on WW1 after the Boche started murdering Americans. WTF?

How does anyone fall for this shit? It was Nazi propaganda.

CPAC urged to probe more sexual misconduct claims against chair Matt Schlapp

Quote:
A senior board member of the parent organization behind the prominent Conservative Political Action Conference who resigned on Friday urged an independent investigation into additional allegations of sexual misconduct against chairman Matt Schlapp.

The vice chairman of the board of the American Conservative Union, Charlie Gerow, announced his resignation on Friday in a letter to other directors that called on them to authorize an investigation including any additional allegations that they or staff have become aware of, according to multiple people familiar with the letter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.
Guess the Repugnants have trouble keeping their hands to themselves. Will the right wing media report this? No.

Why Republicans Will Finally Destroy the Church in the USA
The more Christians clutch at political power, the faster they drive Christianity to extinction.

Destroying the evangelical church (as currently constituted) would be a godsend to our country. Evangelicals have been at the forefront of ignorance and intolerance for well over two centuries (since the Second Great Awakening of the early 19th Century).

The founding Fathers knew all to well the evils of having church and state combined. Some lessons it appears need to be relearned over and over.

This rise was slow in coming and not soon to be over. Will not end until in a climax of violence against those who oppose them I fear.
