Don't give the MAGA masses too much credit for paying enough attention. Sure Loomer and Bannon see what's happening, but the cultists aren't that bright. They won't see that Trump's full attention (after his own bank accounts) is on enriching Mush and the billionaires at their expense until the services and programs they depend on to live disappear. And even then they will blame immigrants, gays, trans kids, Democrats and the Deep State, not the greedy assholes that have been robbing them blind since Ronnie Raygun.

Ramaswamy's comment was so powerful because it called out MAGA for what it is: a coalition of the mediocre white men who've held America back since the founding. They can't work as hard as immigrants--indeed, they are the reason America instituted slavery--and they wouldn't if they could because they don't believe they should have to.
