In a recent MSNBC discussion, Anthony Scaramucci accused former President Trump of abandoning the core values of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement. He highlighted the tension between Trump's alliances with billionaires and traditional MAGA supporters, such as Steve Bannon. Scaramucci argued that Trump prioritizes the optics of subservience from wealthy allies over the commitment to grassroots supporters. He posited that Trump's focus is more on personal gain and attention than on the political ramifications involving the midterms or the foundational principles of MAGA.
The ensuing politics is not that big of a deal... because everything is about him. So look at it through the following prism. Am I getting a lot of attention or am I making a lot of money?
Trump is siding with billionaires in his orbit rather than diehard MAGA supporters like Bannon because he enjoys the aesthetics of their subservience to him.
