Trump just went 'two bridges too far even for MAGA': ex-GOP strategist

 Donald Trump's latest actions amount to "two bridges too far even for a lot of MAGA folks," according to a former Republican strategist on Saturday.

Conservative anti-Trump activist Rick Wilson, who co-founded the Lincoln Project and hosts the group's podcast, recently flagged a "crucial lie" that Trump unwittingly exposed, causing adviser Stephen Miller to "weep."

Over the weekend, Wilson dropped a video in which he interviewed Gen Z political activist Olivia Julianna.

As part of that discussion, Wilson identified the "two bridges" Trump burned.

First, Wilson noted the "assault" of Senator Padilla, who was tackled while speaking out at a press conference for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.

The second, Wilson said, was sending the Marines into LA.

After it was suggested that Republicans "lost their footing" when it comes to immigration, Wilson said, "I think Senator Padilla being assaulted, to my mind, and maybe you have another moment in the week you think is different, I think the Marines being deployed and Senator Padilla being assaulted, were two bridges too far even for a lot of MAGA folks."

Wilson's guest agreed, calling the assault a "flex of muscle" that will backfire on the administration.
