Even Donald Trump can’t shift the momentum of Trumpism: Trump’s allies were quick to blame his critics for this weekend’s assassination attempt, while Trump pledged a new dawn. The former impulse is likely to prevail. - "This idea that Trump has the opportunity to reform his approach to politics and/or unify the nation is as old as Trump’s career as a national politician. And, sure, maybe this time it will happen, who knows? But after he won the election in 2016, he claimed that he would seek to unify the country. That quickly manifested as an insistence that Americans should rally around his presidency and his policies."
J.D. Vance pick unnerves GOP’s business elite, thrills populists: Ohio senator leads GOP faction sharply breaking with party ideology on free markets, trade and other policies - "“What they’re trying to do is tap into white working-class cultural and social signifiers, while doing as little as possible to actually reduce incomes at the top and actually redistribute them down. It’s a delicate game they play,” said Matt Bruenig, co-founder of the People’s Policy Project, which advances left-wing policies."
