Even IF I believed in the MAGA shit, I can't imagine having any respect or love for Trump.

It’s so obvious that he doesn’t give a shit about any of his supporters, that he doesn’t believe half the shit he says (because he’s incapable of believing anything but what is immediately helpful to his own vain self-interest aka greed and narcissism), and that he’s ultimately a coward. And he grifts off of his own supporters constantly.

Where was Trump on January 6, after he instructed his cultists to “march down Pennsylvania Avenue to Congress?” If I remember correctly, it was Trump who said WE are going to go to the Capitol. Yet while his supporters obliged, Trump fled the scene, washing his hands of the violence he unleashed, which led to the deaths of several Trump supporters and a couple of cops, and the arrest of many more MAGA cultists.

They were doing it to keep HIM in power. They were loyal. And how does Trump treat people who are loyal to him? Ask Michael Cohen, for one.

If you hate “the libs” more than you love yourself or care for your own well being, than I suppose supporting some Reality TV host fraud piece of shit is fine - you know, as long as he “triggers the libs. ”

I suspect that not having Trump in their face 24/7 might provide the impetus to re-evaluate what he did to the MAGA movement....which is less than nothing.
