11. Could someone please explain this to me?

I’m having a hard time keeping the crazies straight, and why they’re feuding with each other, at least at the top. As far as I can tell, Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and the Heritage Foundation are all now loosely aligned with each other, which is especially bad since Fuentes is rabidly antisemitic. On the other side are Mitch McConnell and presumably somewhat less crazy wingnuts who fall under the misleading heading of ‘traditional conservatives’. And where does Project 2025 fit in this feud?

These people are all crazy to me. But I don’t understand the practical implications of this in the sane world. Is one side expected to ‘win’ and, if so, who and what will it mean? I just know it’s not good either way.
