  It’s slipping because they are starting to figure out they no longer need Trump to push a fascist agenda.
context: Did we not see the same Speaker vote? Trump, the person, is now a separate entity than the MAGA ideology. HIS hold might not be as strong but the MAGA ideology is still there and raging on. >
  
  And MAGA is just a continuation of the Tea Party/Contract with America/Morning in America/etc. bullshit. Trump has always just been a symptom and the GOP has always been the disease.
  That said - holy fuck, Merrick Garland do your fucking job and treat this symptom. >
  
  Treat the disease...if at all possible. This “cancer” is destroying your country.... >
  
  The Republicans want Trumpism without Trump, but don't want to be the ones who openly get rid of him. >
  
  Fucking spineless simpy sycophants, all the way down... >
  
  Hes not crazy enough for them anymore. That says a lot. >
  
  He didn't hurt the right people! >
  
  Whilst I am glad about this and have schadenfreude, I worry what fascist will replace him. >
  
  Probably ron desantis >
  
  Ugh!  I hope not. >
  
  
  Donald Trump's grip on GOP slipping
  
  "I want to especially thank President Trump. I don't think anybody should doubt his influence." - Kevin McCarthy, Jan 6, 2023 >
  
  Small hands too weak to keep his grip… >
  
  Putin's grip is just as strong though. >
  
  House Republicans don't want to hear this. They're still in love with Trump.
