    I have notice that upper class Republicans, informed Republicans and Republicans who worked for him are voting for Kamala Harris. The lower class, low information MAGAs and haters are still all in for the weak, weird, old orange felon.

    Trump fatigue is real.

    The only news I want to hear about him is how much he lost by and how long his prison sentence will be.

    That’s nice and all but we still have the young idiots like MGT and Bobert and Gaetz that will carry the Trump torch. Not to mention the young SCOTUS idiots.

    make sure to remind him that Republican leadership has done nothing to stop him, and has facilitated his shitty policy changes every step of the way. just in case he thinks Trump is the only problem and plans on going back once he’s gone

    I have family who are lifelong Republicans but soured on Trump. Because, for all of their faults and their media bubbles, willing to endure Trump’s stupidity in exchange for the idea that he was just a tool for the GOP, they do still believe in democracy, and Jan 6 was too blatant for even their favorite news sources to spin positively.

      I wish I knew Republicans like that. All the ones I know literally would never change their mind about him no matter what. And this sadly includes my own family.

        The ones I know who eventually changed their were never all-in on him, they were the “He’s our Cyrus” types who recognized he was a shitty human being and, more important to them, a pathetic excuse of a con man only wearing a Christian’s clothing, but thought the GOP could effectively use him for long-standing policy goals. They were willing to buy into “The border in crisis!”, “LAGGING DEMOCRAT SOCIALIST ECONOMY”, and “Transgender litterboxes in public schools”, but “Time to overthrow democracy” was too much for them. For their faults and delusions, they genuinely buy into the US as a bastion of freedom and democracy, and anti-democratic moves evoke genuine revulsion from them.

        It’s small, and if they weren’t family, it wouldn’t be enough for me to keep enduring such nonsense - but as they are family, I’m just thankful that they aren’t outright fascists, just rubes. Though, as long as the fascists hide the exact level of fascism they’re going for, the practical effect is the same. Trump’s incompetence is, in a strange way, a saving grace here.

          That all makes sense. I wish my family wasn’t so garbagey about trump. I lost a ton of respect for them because they literally can’t be bothered to care about anything besides abortion being evil. When confronted with Jan 6, trump is magically the only person on earth for them who isn’t guilty by association, because clearly the traitors did this very much against Trump’s wishes 🤮

      I wish I had those. My family is in Connecticut, of all places, and there are still Trump supporters among them, somehow.

        Same! I remember back in high school some of my classmates had confederate flags on their trucks and hats and shit.

        Like… Bruh, we’re in Connecticut, we were on the Union’s side, and your “farm” is half an acre outside of Middletown, relax.

          Lol we could have gone to the same school, and my family is 100% all in on the guy. So weird.

    Where I live, more and more “Trump Vance 2024 MAGA” signs are planted in front of homes every day. The only people supporting that citrus shit-stain are too far gone to correct their misconceptions.
