None of this is to say that the MAGA movement’s threat to American democracy has diminished. Rather, the movement has shown it is entirely capable of operating without Trump, fueled by disinformation from the right, lawmakers and state officials exploiting a radicalized base and a White Christian nationalist movement (frightfully gaining a foothold in the Supreme Court).
In other words, as the MAGA movement grows more dangerous, Trump increasingly seems to be a has-been. If only the media would focus on the real threat to democracy — not Trump, but a political party that has devolved into an authoritarian cult.
