It seems that Niall Ferguson, the self-declared strategic genius, has misjudged a rather critical strategic shift.

The one whereby bootlickers are no longer exempt from becoming MAGA cannon fodder.

One could see this coming a mile off.

Senior strategist Ferguson couldn´t, apparently 🤣

Blowing with the prevailing wind will backfire on you eventually.

His response under Vance´s critique is adorable. He´s trying to set the factual record straight - FACTS, as if those will matter to Vance.

What Ferguson fails to grasp is that MAGA is not about having the ´right´ experts, but about having none. Not about the ´right´ type of academic research, but about having none. Not about the ´right´ type of globalism, but about having none. And NF is, at his core, a global, academia-based expert.

It's also hilarious that Vance appears to have no idea who Ferguson is

Ah, that would explain why Ferguson´s reply partly read as a cover letter with attached CV ;)

Pathetic, eh
