The proposed ceasefire seems to have been more wishful thinking than reality. Axios noted that the MAGA movement, which started the year at the peak of its power, has instead been embroiled in its most significant infighting since its inception by President Trump in 2015. Deep fissures have emerged. One prominent clash is described as 'Oligarchs versus Nativists.' On one side, you have figures like Elon Musk, representing tech-aligned individuals who favor skilled foreign workers. On the other, Steve Bannon champions the traditional, nativist wing, prioritizing American jobs and a strong anti-immigration stance. This highlights a significant split between the movement's billionaire financial backers and its working-class base, especially on issues like immigration and economic nationalism. Beyond this, ideological divides persist on foreign policy and the balance between Christian nationalism and secular populism.
