The purpose of this piece was simple: to explain what’s happening in a calm, conversational way. With the midterms coming up, the right needs to get its act together. That doesn’t mean pretending disagreements don’t exist—it means understanding them before they become self-destructive.
The left isn’t exactly a model of coherence either. At this point it’s the clown car versus the muscle car with too much horsepower pulling in multiple directions. Neither wins by default. This piece isn’t about picking sides inside the movement; it’s about recognizing the mechanical problems before something important spins out. Jim
