I introduced you to the MAGA Fluid a few weeks back. Pity them. Listen to them. See them.
These folks are longing for a civic identity — a civic gender, you might say — that is something other than MAGA or non-MAGA. Call them the MAGA Fluid. They seem think their non-binary longing entitles them to some affirming care by non-MAGAs. It does not.
Most of the MAGA Fluids in November, without any ambiguity, will freely choose MAGA as their civic gender. Most MAGA Fluids will freely choose to end the basic, flawed, aspirational, pretty successful 250-year American experiment in self-government. Most MAGA Fluids will choose to turn the nuclear codes and Department of Justice over to a fake revenge-obsessed, deteriorating 78-year-old Capitol lynch mob inciting felon sex abuser and his horde of MAGA Freaks.
The MAGA Fluid cannot even articulate why they are freely choosing to toss out 250 years of American efforts at self-government as casually as a Trump wife. But their half-muttered excuse will be some racist lie about non-MAGAs that Susie Wiles feeds them.
The MAGA Fluid don’t want the MAGA Freaks, including Trump and DeSantis, to win, exactly. But they don’t want openly non-MAGA normal people to win more. That would mean admitting we’re right and they’re wrong — morally, intellectually, civically, economically. And we have been all along. See forced birth as an example. That would mean all of this has been a terrible waste, which it has.
And this:
Choosing — yet again — to inflict a deteriorating, revenge-obsessed, 78-year-old Capitol lynch mob inciting felon sex abuser and his horde of MAGA freaks on your friends, loved ones, neighbors, fellow citizens, and communities means inflicting — yet again — a deteriorating, revenge-obsessed, 78-year-old Capitol lynch mob inciting felon sex abuser and his horde of MAGA freaks on your friends, loved ones, neighbors, fellow citizens, and communities.
I am surrounded in Lakeland, Florida these days by folks who have made this choice multiple times already, who pretend they’re in downcast denial about the self-evident facts of making that choice yet again, especially post January 6th. They’re pretending to believe that choosing to make a MAGA dictatorship and give it the nuclear codes and Department of Justice does not mean making a MAGA dictatorship and giving it the nuclear codes and Department of Justice.

Happy Halloween from the MAGA Fluid!
