Is this a good idea for Republicans? Insofar as they won the 2024 by a slim 1.5%, should they jettison the MAGA base (assuming that there is a practical way to accomplish that)?
Imagine a Republican party that had found a way to separate itself from evangelical Christians, white nationalists, the anti-woke, supporters of the insurrection, the uneducated, the supporters of assault weapons, anti-environmentalists, and so forth.
Whom does that leave? Only the amoral/immoral rich people, and sorry, that’s not going to get the job done.
Does the Republican Party Really Want to Rid Itself of “Contemptible Fools?”

In a recent post, I argued that our brains are wired in a certain way, and that we have little in any control over our values and beliefs.
German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte seem to be saying something similar here. To take me as an example, I’m no more capable of being a Trump supporter than I am in believing in the tooth fairy or Santa Claus.
It’
s true that MAGA votes against its own financial interests. But keep in mind that they have other more important interests. e.g., punishing immigrants and other people of color.
