Trump's Second Term

  • MAGA Hardliners represent the fiery core of Trump’s base. They are fiercely loyal, deeply religious, and animated by a sense that America is in an existential struggle between good and evil, with God firmly on their side.
  • Anti-Woke Conservatives are relatively well-off, politically engaged, and deeply frustrated by the perceived takeover of schools, culture, and institutions by the progressive left.
  • Mainline Republicans are middle-of-the-road conservatives who play by the rules and expect others to do the same. Most do not follow politics closely. For them, Trump’s strength is that he advances familiar conservative priorities: securing the border, keeping the economy strong, and preserving a sense of cultural stability.
  • The Reluctant Right is the most ambivalent cohort of Trump’s coalition, and the group most likely to have voted for Trump transactionally: the businessman who was “less bad” than the alternative. Many feel disconnected from national politics and believe politicians do not share their priorities.

May 26: The Pentagon bashed the Democratic National Committee (DNC) as “classless” over a Memorial Day post on social media honouring service members killed during the Trump administration’s Iran war, stating “This is one of the most classless, disrespectful, and vile posts using America’s fallen warriors as props to try to score cheap political points against President Trump,” the Pentagon said in its post. “Their sacrifice should NEVER be exploited, especially on Memorial Day.”​
Trump himself had honoured the 13 fallen service members earlier that day.

The extraordinary paradise Trump is building.

Miller: The American people understand the hell that we inherited, and the extraordinary paradise that Trump is building. From record inflation that we had under Biden, to the cost of living gone down faster than it's gone down before.
