Trump Is Losing His Cheerleaders
The columnist Michelle Goldberg normally doesn’t see much hope in the Trump era, but on “The Opinions,” she says the cracks in MAGA’s media machine are real — and explains what they could mean for Trump’s future.

Donald Trump’s coalition, although he still has his hard-core base, you already see it falling apart, and a lot of the people who would have been, I think, in the past, cheerleaders for some of the most radical action that Donald Trump could take, who would have been out there excusing or encouraging a Jan. 6-type thing, those people have fallen off the wagon. Alex Jones is gone. – Candace Owens is gone. – When you’ve lost Candace Owens —— Tucker Carlson is wondering if Donald Trump is the Antichrist, which is maybe a conversation for another episode of this podcast —— A whole episode on the religious overtones. And so I don’t want to underestimate how much power Donald Trump still has. He has the military. But I think that the loss of a lot of his most powerful propagandists would just make it much, much harder.
