Borowitz - Traitor of the Week: Special Karma Chameleon Edition!

Elise Stefanik

A true quisling aids the enemy despite knowing better. For that reason, the term does not apply to someone like Tommy Tuberville, whose sentience approximates that of a garden gnome.

New York congresswoman Elise Stefanik, on the other hand, is a Harvard graduate—and so, like other Ivy League-educated quislings such as Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz, she won’t be able to claim ignorance as a defense during her eventual tribunal.

Stefanik actually began her congressional career as a moderate Republican noted for her willingness to collaborate on bipartisan legislation. She’s still a collaborator, of course, but in more of a Vichy way.

I’ve already charted Elise’s extreme MAGA makeover, but for those who’d rather not take a deep dive into Stefanik lore—and who can blame you—I’ll summarize.
