Go back in this forum and count how many times MAGA has claimed that somebody is about to "learn a hard lesson" or "find out the hard way."
And yet, nobody ever seems to be truly intimidated by anything MAGA does. The people of Minneapolis never backed down, not even after blood was spilled in the streets. Now the Iranians are openly toying with MAGA on the Strait of Hormuz. We've bombed them, but they still show not an ounce of respect.
MAGA has had a decade to impose its will, but nobody fears or respects it. They sound tough, but so do substitute teachers, JV football assistants, and permissive parents. That's the kind of energy that MAGA projects right now.
The only lesson that's been learned is that MAGA has no command or control of anything.
