Anyway, the civil war I predicted would happen before the election has finally started. Regular/Old MAGA does not like tech bro MAGA because tech bro MAGA supports immigration and automation. So now the question is will Trump throw the fantastic Laura Loomer and friends under the bus or Vivek, Elon and the Indians. Elon and the bois are responding to people who say: "They took our jobs" by saying it's a skill issue and that the US always needed immigrants to achieve great things like Wehrner von Braun.
I never understood why the Democrats didn't exploit this rift prior to the election because it was already boiling at the RNC.
The Democrats can't exploit it because they're hopelessly boxed in by their previous immigration policy positions. It's vulnerable from the populist right.
From there you can call out the very thin coat of "America first" slapped on policies that really look like the business interests of very particular Americans first.
Interesting isn't it how the list of positions that Nintex posted rather than being world-beater PhDs instead looks like the typical recruiting class from the engineering program at a flagship state university. Makes you think.
