no matter what revelations come out that get them to leave MAGA.

The damage is done and I don't know how long it will take to undo ( if that is even possible ).

from a cult, like the Moonies or one of the people who escaped from Jim Jones' People's Temple while the others drank the Kool-Aid. He won't call MAGA a cult but a community, but that's really what a cult is - MAGA, like other cults, gives some people a sense of community when they have a psychological need for one.

What I can’t process is how they didn’t know he was always a pathological liar and a con man.

Their superpower is their ability to get people to ignore clear evidence of the con.

It was only on for 5 minutes, too. That's what I do now. Life's too short to listen to his BS statement about not calling them a cult. I replied with a string of 4-letter words and now I am calm again. I love the remote control for my TV. If the fucking moron ever appears and opens his ugly mouth I immediately go looking for my remote control's "mute" button.

It's a fake community, created from whole cloth by its leader who knows how to con people who have a psychological need for a community into thinking they have a real one. The guy was ready to leave the MAGA cult, but he's still not ready to acknowledge that it is a cult.

Why is this lie worse than the others? The damage to this country is immeasurable, but now you want to be baptized and cleansed.

I say, let them process their "sin" of supporting him without our judgement. They'll never want to come into our tent if they know that derision is all that awaits them. At some point this nation will have to heal from its current horror. It may not be easy, but as it's said, "A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step."

Peace, all....

I will consider it. When they are horrified by what Trump is doing to immigrants and the other atrocities he’s committing , maybe. This is the second time he has screwed this country. Until they do good works and atone with sincerity. They can go screw themselves. I am going to hound them to hell.

to help undo. Words are cheap, let's see some action!
Maybe someday I can forgive them for what they've done, but not now. Maybe never, and God will just have to forgive them for me.

Alluding to The Who, there may already be a casting call at The Federalist Society to replace Trump's brand of reality TV Presidency. Next time it may be someone who acts more dignified and "Presidential" but one who also knows how to do bad things behind the scenes. And expertly cover them up. That candidate may play the role of someone likeable and empathetic while he advances a "kinder gentler" Project 2028. Same as the old boss, or worse?

I'll believe the change of heart when they mobilize a J6 type crowd to stop ICE and free the concentration camps. Until then, they have nothing I want to hear.
