I'm not completely sold on this theory but something about this guy stinks:

-He has the support of some of the worst RINO scum:

-MSM is uniformly all over this guy's nuts, touting him as the 2024 GOP frontrunner.

-He has raised a record-breaking $200 million for his gubernatorial re-election campaign. with 94% coming from mega-donors including 42 billionaires.

-He coasted to an overwhelming victory in a battleground state with Dominion voting machines while GOP candidates in states like AZ, WI, GA, PA struggled or lost. It feels like the Deep State wanted him to win to drive a wedge into the MAGA movement.
