“Ahhh gotta love the Right. Elon looks like he's actually about to succeed at the thing we all cheered him for a week ago and half this thread is turning on him and calling him part of the enemy for actually not being stopped by said enemy. No wonder the Right can never manage to actually take any real ground or deal any real blows to the enemy. Even actually trying is considered evidence of being a turncoat.”

There's two segments of the New Right - there's those that blindly jump in to praise a leftist or heterodox person for being "based" when they come to an epiphany, then there's the section that's been burned by so many two-faced assholes that sees one or two things wrong with the person and basically calls them off as being another person just wanting to cash in on the fame or take power for themselves.
I can't blame the second faction. You will never find a perfect representative, talking point, or politician because they're all human. If you let the perfect be the enemy of the good you will never get anything done.
I think, I hope, states are starting to wrestle their autonomy back from the federal government. As governors like DeSantis who openly flout the administration and its forces grow in popularity, I hope more follow.
