Conservative commentators like to trot out the MAGA destruction scenario, trying to paint the MAGA movement as fragile and delicate, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Some talking heads are now bloviating that the Epstein file fiasco will destroy MAGA, while others say that the Big Beautiful Bill’s spending will smash MAGA.
All of them are WRONG!
Let's not forget the MAGA movement has its roots reaching all the way back to the Minuteman Project when a few dozen volunteer citizens did the job Congress refused to do on the US/Mexican border, and that was to defend the American borders against the invading armies amassed from nations across the world illegally entering and illegally staying in America.
Next, those brave souls were founders and the backbone of the Tea Party that marched on Washington with cardboard signs, held countless rallies, and was instrumental in electing dozens of members of Congress.
Then Donald Trump entered the scene as the founding cornerstone for the concept of Making America Great Again. It was then that these activists toughened up, and Minutemen, Tea Partiers, and concerned citizens unified behind a leader who became the centerpiece of an activist-hardened army.
Now, confused commentators think that a few misplaced Epstein files, or perhaps an insult or two, will somehow dislodge the biggest and strongest citizen movement in American history. Not on your life!
These patriots, consisting of moms, dads, grandmas, and grandpas of all ages, have unitedly declared, "NO MORE," to the progressive anti-American mob. They have raised the American flag, resolute in their determination to Make America Great Again, and nothing can deter them.
So ask yourself an honest question: “Will MAGA be destroyed by the Epstein files?” It’s a question that has gripped political junkies and partisans alike, stoked by headlines, half-leaks, and conspiratorial whispers echoing from cable news to backwoods fire pits on YouTube.
And to be blunt—NOT IN A MILLION YEARS!
But let’s unpack the real fear here, the real fight beneath the smoke and snark: The American populist movement faces an existential choice. Not due to Jeffrey Epstein's death and the secrets he carried with him, but rather due to the extent of the rot, MAGA has the courage to confront it, even if some of its own members are caught in the blast.
The MAGA base isn’t a monolith, but it is united by a shared sense of betrayal by elites, of whom Epstein was the most grotesque symbol. Epstein wasn’t just a predator; he was a conduit, a hub for power brokers, hedge fund managers, scientists, politicians, and princes. To MAGA’s most principled backers, exposing him is not a distraction. It’s the point.
When Nick Fuentes melts down and calls MAGA a scam, corporate media licks its lips. “Even the far-right’s most radical son has turned on Trump!” they gasp. But the truth?
Fuentes was never MAGA. Not really. He was always a nihilist in red, white, and blue cosplay. His flirtation with Trump was performative, strategic, and always conditional. He’s not proof of a movement collapsing; he’s proof of a movement growing powerful enough to have parasites.
The real story isn't about Fuentes or some viral beard screaming into the void. It’s about what regular, blue-collar Americans do next. And so far? They’re watching. They're angry. But they’re not leaving!
Michelle Goldberg, from her perch at the New York Times, muses that Trump supporters must invent vast enemies, satanic traffickers, deep-state spies, and foreign agents to prove their loyalty. What she doesn’t understand is this: MAGA didn’t need Epstein to invent the idea that the ruling class is sick, secretive, and untouchable. Epstein confirmed it.
The political case for disclosure is obvious. But the moral case is unavoidable. Epstein’s network wasn’t just a criminal syndicate; it was a systemic cancer, and everyone knows it.
Still, the idea that MAGA collapses overnight? No chance.
Movements with real emotional fuel, economic pain, social dispossession, and national pride don’t vaporize because of tabloid fodder. They evolve. They absorb shocks. They shed skin.
But what if the fecal matter hits the fan? Simple: MAGA will endure. Because enduring is what they do, and not flinching at a misspoken word or tattered political jargon will stop them, and this is the reason both the left and right fear them.
There’s a reason Epstein became the evil symbol he did. His story isn’t just about rape and blackmail; it’s about how power protects itself. And now the American Right, once the party of country clubs and soirees, has become the movement of the people who want to torch progressive wokeness to the ground.
The MAGA movement has always been bigger than Trump. If he changes course, the base won’t fold—it’ll pivot. And if Trump does take a stand, if he dares to go full scorched-earth on Epstein’s network and whoever it touches, then he won’t just survive. He’ll become untouchable.
That’s the irony the Left can’t quite fathom. The Epstein files won’t destroy MAGA; they will merely serve as another speed bump on the rough road to making America great again.
Final Word: How can a movement that shouts, "We are many, we are ready, and we are one," be stopped? Impossible!

They only thing that will destroy the MAGA movement is if the Trump DOJ doesn't take action against all the information that Tulsi has found. We want action against the bad actors in the Obama and Biden administrations.
Martha, I'm totally with you. President Trump needs to eradicate any opposition and any other enemy (including the judiciary) that stands in his way of making America great again.
As a major TrumpVictory2020 PA Volunteer, it was my pleasure to assist at 7 of the 9 central and western PA Trump Rallies. When people arrive at 5 AM for an evening rally, they are not led. They ARE the leaders and will not easily disperse. The same can be said for all the others who arrive throughout the day and still must stand in line for hours. Then you listen to them talk and hear what they say and how they say it. Each person is a flaming ember of one huge fire. They are still in line and the chanting begins. Eventually the gates/doors open and the chanting increases. People look around as if it is a beach party, everyone is excited, everyone wants to shout to everyone else their thoughts on righting-the-ship. The atmosphere is ripe. If Donald does not appear, someone will jump to the podium. Donald was at the right place at the right time and picked up on their message as it matched his own. He had the name and the money. Perfect! There are no coincidences in life for Christians. This was ordained. Was Donald a Christian then? Now? Are not we all works-in-progress? Donald is growing and God has him. Think not? Your thinking is incorrect. Think anew. I stood on a concrete triangle at the intersection of I-76 (PA Turnpike) and I-70 and US 30. This is an intersection of interstate highways and a major US route. There are several traffic lights. So cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and RVs are stopped for a red light or are whizzing around the triangle, anxious to get back up to 80 mph again. The travelers are both intrastate and interstate as well as local folk. Everyone is in a rush. And there I stand with my Trump sign on a stick, waving it, pumping it up and down. The travelers from everywhere, as rushed as they are, respond with great vehemence. Bikers rev their engines 3 times in order to say, "4 more years!" Truckers pull and hang onto their air horns as if to quote the Bible: I Cor. 15:52, "The trumpet shall sound..." Car horns as well as other vehicle horns try not to be drowned out and raise their honking voices vociferously. People hanging out their windows with arms waving wildly and thumbs raised from both hands as their vehicles whiz around my triangle’s curved side. An impromptu rally as it were. If Trump was not the leader, a leader would have squirted forth, burst onto the scene. The people were speaking and no one was going to shut them up! Noone! They were all a part of a great song, an oratorio of sorts, the title of which is "Enough is Enough!" The main melody had a wonderful counter melody familiar to many: "Onward Christian Soldiers!" The constant and driving rhythm beaten with loud drums seemed to be alerting everyone: "Get out of our way or get run over!"
Absolutely beautiful, John. I attended, I think, 5 rallies in Dayton/Cinci, and was at J6. People were united. Not necessarily chanting or other, but the feeling of unity was something to behold. And those who did everything in their power to help those poor souls at J6, who were tear gassed and whatever else those rats unleashed on them, the crowds parted for them, for each and every one. Wide. With respect and stunned silence. Those victims could NOT SEE. People gathered water for them, led them through the crowd, as these pour souls held their faces up to God and dripped water into their burning eyes. Old people. Middel-aged people. NO one put themself first. Talk about unity....
And God sent my little group a guardian angel, a young man in khacki fatiques, with a matching cannister hanging from his neck. He stopped me, as I was in front. And we were before the crowds. He said, "You do NOT want to breathe this." I stared at him, utterly clueless. He stared harder at me and repeated those words. And went on. I turned and told my litttle group to go back. And then all hell broke loose. The crowds swarmed. It took us 15 minutes to go back, about 5-10 ft. But we were out of the chaos. Men grabbed speakers and began yelling what all they were firing or doing. And that guardian angel army man, was the direct result of my little prayer group praying safety and protection for us. Prayer works...
United we are. were. and will remain. The left shall not destroy this nation under God, with Liberty and Justice for All. But, mess with us, mess with this country again. I think, once the hammer of justice falls down, everything will begin to set itself in order. And a holy fear set in among the left that will remain. Man does not make up his own laws. Hammer, FALL.
I and my step-son were at J6, but we were on the other side. It wa evident that 3/4 of us were Trumpers. The remaining 1/4 was split in half with eacjh half at the opposite ends.They were BLM and Antifa. We were saying the Lord's Prayer, et al. They were testing the Guards and causing trouble.
We noticed military around us, wearing something that we noticed. We could just tell. Retired mostly, but young also. We did not see anything like what you saw. We did see multiple Polish couples with signs basically saying Wake up, Robin B. was there with his staff. I have heard his story about the staff over the water.
Wow.
Great comments! Several media groups are picking up this article today and rewriting it or publishing whole!

This is the key to bringing down the swamp, Trump would be untouchable, the people would stand and support him, they would adore him for making the step that will bring about the cleansing of DC!
I went to bed last night thinking about this sentence that Steve wrote. It feels like a shout to hell from us from the heavenly realms, that YOU CAN'T BREAK US, YOU CAN'T FOLD US, YOU CAN'T WEAKEN US. AND YOU CAN'T SEPARATE US. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WE FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT.
Pretty darn awesome. Thanks, Steve and Ilona!!
