Conservative Cracks in the Constitution: Is a Crisis Admitted?
Even traditionally pro-Trump outlets like the Wall Street Journal are expressing alarm over the current administration’s policies, signaling a potential shift within conservative circles. This isn’t a sudden moral awakening, but a recognition that the “destruction-for-destruction’s-sake” approach threatens the very systems conservatives previously sought to control. Think tanks like the Manhattan Institute, previously architects of the MAGA playbook, are now openly warning of a constitutional crisis stemming from the administration’s actions. This growing concern highlights a potential fracture within the conservative movement, as some recognize the prioritization of spiteful “owning the libs” over actual governance.
