Jennifer Rubin Says Data Center Backlash Is MAGA's Comeuppance

Jennifer Rubin, writing at The Contrarian, argues that growing local opposition to data center construction in Ohio amounts to political payback for MAGA-aligned Republicans. She frames the backlash against AI-driven infrastructure projects as a midterm liability for Trump's party, suggesting communities are punishing officials over energy costs, land use and environmental strain tied to data center expansion.
Why now: Voters in Ohio and elsewhere are pushing back against data center projects, and commentators see it as a politically damaging issue for Trump's party heading into the midterms.
