      1. Stefanik -- coming hot on the heals of her "pedo grifters" tweet & dishonest deflection -- continues to up the ante on the Great Replacement talk. She's someone to watch.https://twitter.com/EoinHiggins_/status/1526200993553256449 …

      2. Stefanik is a true bellwether of the GOP because her profile used to be that of a moderate, she comes from a district that was blue and still purple (i.e. not deep red like MT Greene's district) and she's fully on board with Trumpist agenda (including QAnon & racism)

      3. Important to see the Trumpification as coming in two brands: the true believers (Greene, Gosar, etc.) and the opportunists (Vance, Stefanik). The opportunists are more significant because they show where ambitious people think party is going. Leading indicator.

          4. Over at The Nation I make the case that Stefanik is a preview of where the GOP is heading, which is towards not just a normalization of Trumpism but also mainstreaming of QAnon & Great Replacement racist theory.https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/stefanik-vance-buffalo-massacre/ …

          I take your point, but think it's not always so easy to tell these groups apart. Who's to say Stefanik didn't always believe this, and instead, her posing as a moderate showed an opportunistic streak?

          Understand....always...that the Trumpification has NO problem with violence or imposing their will on an unwilling majority of Americans. It's perfectly okay with them.

          Vance is very much Thiel's pet, and Thiel absoLUTELY believes this garbage(and prob wants to relegalize slavery, as well as wanting to be king of some significant part of the US), so I'd put Vance in the "true believer" category.

          I used to .@RepStefanik was merely opportunistic but revising that view. She hates people who stand between her and power, and has come to believe in the inherent superiority of white people.

          Maybe Stefanik and Vance are - despite their Ivy League bonafides - as ardent believers as Greene & Gosar.

          If so they’ve converted late in the day. Vance was a never trumper in 2016.
