On today’s BradCast: Finally, even MAGA is beginning to notice. Or, at least they are finally admitting they’ve noticed. [Audio link to full show follows this summary.]
Day after day, especially as his war on and/or supposed ceasefire with Iran continues to be a global embarrassment, Donald Trump keeps proving his critics were right all along.
In many case, such as MAGA media elite or his own Truth Social supporters turning on him, it’s amusing and encouraging. In other cases, like those who, with the encouragement of Republican officials, bought into the Trump myth, it is very sad. Especially in states like deep “red” West Virginia, where energy prices are now skyrocketing amid his broken promises to revive dirty, deadly, expensive coal and his broken campaign vow, repeated dozens of times, to cut everyone’s gas and energy prices by 50% within his first year. (See Margie Mason’s great piece for AP here.)
Trump is now failing, and very quickly, to paraphrase him. At record levels! Like nobody has ever seen before!
In fact, a majority of Americans would now like to see him impeached an historic third time. New polling appears to break the record for such a finding this early in a President’s term.
But, before any of that can happen — if it ever does — there are still a whole bunch of folks likely to die in his absurdly ill-considered war, and a whole bunch of Administration friends and insiders likely to profiteer off it all on the so-called prediction markets.
