I remember when Trump nominated Rubio. Even the MAGA influencers were punched in the gut by it. (They flipped, of course). But we're getting exactly what was expected by Trump hiring Rubio. Neocon mania. That's why it hurt back then. Picking Rubio was one of the earliest signs that Trump wasn't serious about fixing our country.
The Left never learns that communism doesn't work. The Right never learns that nation-building doesn't work. Mamdani won't create utopia in NYC. Trump won't re-make Venezuela. But the American people, in both cases, will bare the cost of their failures.
