Guilt by Association: Your Silence on MAGA’s Shadow, You’re So Screwed

You didn’t run when you had the chance. Post-2020, when whispers of independence could’ve saved you, you drowned them out with the roar of primary fears and donor demands. You gave eulogies for the old GOP but sang MAGA’s tune. You cringed at the rallies—maybe even rolled your eyes in private—but stayed silent, betting proximity to power trumped the risk of scandal. Why break away? The base demanded devotion, and stepping out meant political suicide.
