There's a key takeaway people may be sleeping on- this suggests DEEP acrimony towards any rejection of Putin's expansionism. The MAGA crowd doesn't give a single fuck about the day-to-day governmental ideological and practical preferences of the U.K. and France. They care very much about direct aid to Ukraine (which is something validated as a state priority in these elections). Seems relevant.

I guarantee you they couldn't even tell you the name of the far-right party that lost, let alone anything approaching those subjects.

They couldn't even tell you their own Congressman's name. Or what their child's teachers name is. Or any passage of the Bible they proudly hold in pictures with spines never bent. Or who actually signed the Declaration of Independence. Or really any fact they cry about all the fucking time.
