Summary

Trump’s transition team is reportedly mired in infighting at Mar-a-Lago, with factions clashing over control and strategy for his return to the White House.

The Washington Post detailed heated disputes, including shouting matches, name-calling, and physical altercations.

Three key factions have emerged: one led by Donald Trump Jr. and JD Vance, another by Trump ally Susie Wiles, and a third by Linda McMahon.

High-profile confrontations involve figures like Boris Epshteyn, Elon Musk, and Vance, highlighting tensions over Cabinet picks and leaks, further fracturing the team.

    “Faith” is clearly the misunderstanding you have here. You don’t choose to drive on the right side of the road because you have Faith you’ll get home safe, you do it because if you drive head-on into traffic, you’ll die. The “Faith” is that the alternative is worse. Are you arguing that the Republicans aren’t worse? Or that everyone reading your post voting for a shitty third party that does virtually no local elections would have led to a better outcome? We have no Faith the Democrats will do good, that’s why we need to shout at them and improve the party with, perhaps maybe our own membership. Where is that energy better directed oh wise sage?

            What I’m saying is pretty fucking clear. You can recruit 100,000 people to support third parties but until the system changes you’re pissing in the wind. I think you know that deep down. But it’s probably easier to just blame everyone who won’t join your pointless crusade

              The system is changing and the faster you abandon the dems the faster we can counter the GOP. I don’t give a shit about any parties at this point. Moving forward elections won’t be free and fair. You think you’re still playing the same game. You can “wait and see” but you’re just allowing the disease to spread.

                Name even the tiniest shred of evidence something is changing. You seriously just watched fascism voted in and you see that as a fucking positive thing?

                I think I’m playing the same game? The game is fucking over, and delusional people like yourself played a role

                  What the fuck are you even arguing then? The game is over. The longer you cling to the democrats the longer you delude yourself allowing fascism to take hold while giving yourself false hope that the dems will do something.

                  I don’t even know where we are disagreeing anymore. Also, how did I ever play a role lol. You have no fucking clue.

        How does that make things better in our current climate? You also need to look up what nihilism actually means lol.
