Yay!!!!!!!!! Let's hope this will teach the MAGA to never trust Trump

Mike's avatar

This will teach MAGA nothing. It will teach all the rest of us everything.

Steve's avatar

Exactly; cultists can't be swayed with reason.

Tammy  Scott's avatar

But many cultist will be swayed by thier bank accounts.

Deborah Shell's avatar

Sad, but TRUE!🙌🏼

Susie's avatar

I sure hope so! I was Republican until the first time trump-rump ran. Been a Democrat since then. Voted against him all three times. I'm proud to be a Democrat now and one of the Midas Mighties!! To those who ever voted for him ( "It's Always Good To Do Your Homework) Love You All

Andrea Tuthill 🇺🇸🏴🇮🇷🇨🇦's avatar

Yep, unfortunately a very true statement. They’re going on Fox and saying Biden left a disaster of an economy and they’re just cleaning up the mess. Nothing could be more opposite of the truth. Fox is a pox and a scourge on this nation.

Linda's avatar

They ingest Lies without reason…They don’t realize that inflation started under Trump and so did the Border crisis…Inflation will get worse under Trump because of the tariffs and I wait to see if they open their big mouths to even admit…Economists now saying a 60% chance of Recession…This will be the third Republican President that caused a Recession in recent History….

Vel Santic's avatar

it's gonna be worse than Recession if tRumputin&his cult are allowed by Americans to carry on with their omnidestructive annihilation of America and the world.

If you want to read/watch the exact opposite of what is going on, watch FOX.

Phyllis Robinson's avatar

Deleted them on phone and tv too much biased misinformation 😡🥊

Aviana NW's avatar

They’re too (brainwashed? invested in the lies?) - their reasoning capacities have atrophied, so don’t hold your breath. Even if the worst happens to them, they’ll probably still be blaming Biden or ? - certainly not their orange 💩 god Trump.

Pat Sevigny's avatar

We have a long ways to go but the maga movement is definitely way smaller. I don't see any t---p signs or very very few. The damage has hit them too and it will continue to hit them.the truth will be shown. But he needs to be exposed every single day. He s playing golf while 4 american soldiers who died for their country were brought home. Defend that maga!!!!

Teri Gelini's avatar

That was unforgivable and should be pushed every day. So disrespectful to the soldier and family! Of courses he also called them suckers and losers and a bad look for him😡

Aviana NW's avatar

Even his disrespect & insults to veterans and troops in general won’t sway MAGAts from worshipping him

Susan Troy's avatar

We don’t have time or energy on trying to persuade MAGA. We have to show up, speak out, and lead by example.Elbows up. Courage everyone.

Sandra Tuttle's avatar

I agree Susan. And our mantra needs to be "ELBOWS UP"!

Shirley Eads's avatar

That's true about the signs. There are several houses I pass daily who either had the signs or flags and now they are gone.....hmmm...some of the smarter magats finally wising up????🤔

Gabrielle's avatar

There are no "smarter" Trump voters. America has a severe and dangerous IGNORANCE problem. In Finland, kids are taught in school how to distinguish between facts and lies and propaganda. Most European countries have already experienced FASCIST occupation and don't EVER want to return to the evil and horror of oppression.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

I’ve noticed that homes that had trump flags before the election are gradually taking them down. A few have replaced them with veteran’s flags.

Becky Suchy's avatar

Everyone needs to talk about how dumb his policies are , how Old and feeble he looks, how weak he looks to the world especially to the dictators he so reveres. He hates that kind of attention but it is all true. . Please amplify that every time you talk about him …oh and add how ridiculous all his Cronies in Congress and his administration look trying to defend him. You have to go for their egos because they don’t care how much they are hurting people. In his own words “he couldn’t

care less”.

Sandra Tuttle's avatar

Truth. And, he puts every American in danger.

Lois's avatar

of course that's indefensible. But we can't forget signalgate in all this. As bad as the dead soldiers are signalgate is far worse. A true threat to our security and he did absolutely nothing about it. And the useless Congress said "time to move on". People are in jail because of way lesser offenses along these lines. We can't just let them sweep it under the rug.

P A Williams's avatar

They would all need to suddenly become able to use reasonable critical logic thinking, so probably not in our lifetime.

Sandra Tuttle's avatar

10-4. Yes we will be at this a long time. But so much stronger and smarter when we get to the other side.

Lois's avatar

The maga are way beyond reason. But Biden won without them and someone else can too. Maybe their children or grandchildren will break free

Judy Robinson's avatar

Lois, we can hope. Actually, through the years though, I have seen children and grandchildren of his supporters as eager followers in the parents’ footsteps. It seems like indoctrination with families.

On the other hand, I know people who are not followers, but their grown children and grandchildren are. It is hard to understand why.

Steve's avatar

Exactly; cultists can't be swayed with reason.

Lois's avatar

We don't need them. There are plenty of other voters out there who didn't vote for trump. That means they aren't committed to him and are probably as angry as we are about what's going on.

Anna B's avatar

Just remember how many drank the Kool-Aid in Jonestown, Guyana. Sad and sickening, but true.

Vel Santic's avatar

at least, those were suicidal. I wish tRumputinists were suicidal instead of homicidal!!

Deborah Shell's avatar

🙌🏼🙌🏼👏👏👍🏼!

meryl selig's avatar

Love your optimism Cool Person. It will take more time and energy and dedication I keep the momentum going

Susan Troy's avatar

But it will be worth it. Onward.

meryl selig's avatar

MAGA has learned nothing. They are regrouping or simply laughing in smug belief that Trump is beyond reproach

James Coyle's avatar

No. They have to start reproaching him themselves. Not holding my breath for that. Meanwhile, we have to keep on fighting, organizing, shouting from the rooftops the sheer wrongness of what this nightmare of an administration is doing.

Susan Troy's avatar

Madeleine Albright said it best, “It took me a long time to find my voice and I’m not going to shut up now.”

Anna B's avatar

Let them, we have work to do!

Blue  Dolphin 7188's avatar

It’s thanks to you Ben Brett and my bestest Jordy. You guys are leading us on the path out of this disaster 💗

Nanasjt6's avatar

TOO LATE! It was TOO LATE in 2015-16. 🤬

Carol Sessler's avatar

Too soon to get smug. These people are insane. They’re only just beginning.

Kris's avatar

I agree…let’s see some more movement now…more lawsuits, more investigations. More fight!

Phyllis Robinson's avatar

It seems to be happening 🇺🇸💙

Seth's avatar

Yes, a leetle early to get hopeful. We’ll see…

Cool Person 🇨🇦's avatar

It feels it’s been three years already since he was elected , it doesn’t feel like three months

Pamela's avatar

I will never believe he was elected. Not legally.

Vel Santic's avatar

'cause he had started actually a decade ago!! he's never gotten stopped (worse, he got awarded by his cultists (heavy or weak)-weak, compromised and unjustly-tiered system of "justice" in USA (think of his 6 minions on scotus)-corporatist majority of msm in USA), much less punished the way he deserves to be!!

Kris's avatar

It’s going to get worse before it gets better but I believe when we (meaning them too) start seeing prices go up etc I’m thinking things may start to shift some. We went grocery shopping today and I was quite pleasantly surprised that people were not panic buying and prices were the same as they were 2 weeks ago (eggs were CHEAPER)

Vel Santic's avatar

Re: your last sentence, you're either joking or live in a Blue State where Democrats still barely hold off against the scourge of tRumputinomics and its horrific effects on the prices.

Kris's avatar

I live in a very blue state, Washington. Gas is going sky high though. We went from $3.99 a gallon to $4.49 overnight. I can’t find it for under $4.00 a gallon now.

Vel Santic's avatar

Therefore, your yesterday's last sentence I took an issue with, must have been written in spirit of your sarcasm.

Kris's avatar

No I wasn’t being sarcastic. Prices remained the same as they were two weeks ago. Why would you think I was being sarcastic?

Vel Santic's avatar

So, what exactly were you trying to say yesterday in that comment? Your first sentence of your yesterday's comment makes sense, unfortunately. Your second sentence of your same yesterday's comment explicitly contradicts the first one 'cause it sounds like people's complacency makes you feel pleasant to the point of sounding like a maga, quoting you ".....prices were the same as they were 2 weeks ago (eggs were CHEAPER)" (unquote). Kind of puzzling what is your point.

As you correctly noted in your following comment, the gas prices are starting to skyrocket.

AAA M's avatar

They began when President Biden became President. Remember Project 2025?

James Coyle's avatar

They began 45 years ago. This is the culmination of their twisted vision.

Kris's avatar

Yes we’re living it now

Deborah Shell's avatar

Please NOOOO! 😱 Clearly, Trump is not in charge, so who is really doing all this behind the scenes?

yep!! and their bizarre but typical slavishness to terrorists putin of russia-mbs of saudia-netanyahu-kahanists of israel.

Deborah Shell's avatar

You can bet money on it.

James Wilson's avatar

And we wouldn’t be aware of more than half of it, if not for three brothers and their pro democracy movement.

Kathy Gray's avatar

It’s our duty to protect our Constitution and stop trump.

Kathy Gray's avatar

Obviously we can’t depend on the people we elected.

Kathy Gray's avatar

Our forefathers expect us to use the tools of the Constitution.

This is why I subscribe with The Meidas Touch Network, Rachael Maddow on MSNBC told me about Bluesky and I am on it now. It’s definitely not X or Threads as I know who is all involved and on the Bukwark today was awesome. Thanks Meidas Mighty

Teresa Johansen's avatar

I need to talk to you guys as I do have info about his classified documents at Ma Largo. This was a while back, and since Musk bought Twitter and it is called X they got rid of the document. Check out a Newsweek article about his classified documents and that Moscow was already studying the documents

Teresa Johansen's avatar

Musk is X and Trump is a criminal

Teresa Johansen's avatar

I will try to find it and try post to here

Teresa Johansen's avatar

Ben, and The Meidas Touch Network needs to know this

Teresa Johansen's avatar

I have tried to post a Newsweek article after Ma Largo was raided for his classified documents and it won’t post on here, but check out the article as Moscow was already studying the documents

You will enjoy Blue Sky.

MAGA not imploding fast enough

Lois's avatar

maga may not. but forget them. let's think of the 7 or 8 million people who didn't vote or voted 3rd party but didn't vote for either party. they are not invested in trump and are not going to sit still while our lives implode. they are who need to be added to our ranks to make a difference. I'm not counting on maga at all, they are willing go give up everything and starve for trump.

Rachel Kamm's avatar

85 million eligible voters did not vote in 2024 presidential election.

Lois's avatar

Yes. exactly. they aren't maga. Really a shame. she lost by so little. even a million or so of those would have done it. But since they aren't loyal or committed to trump they aren't - or haven't - fallen for the BS. That's a good thing.

Vel Santic's avatar

Also, our vice president Kamala Harris "lost" mainly because of tRumputinist purges of ca. 4 million Democratic voters from the voting rolls i.e. voter suppression vigilantism i.e. the real steal that was november of 2024.

Vel Santic's avatar

Crucially important point to keep emphasizing, Rachel Kamm!!

Vel Santic's avatar

yet, stealing is what magats actually do, as their every accusation is their projection of themselves. that is their kgb-school of warped "psychology" i.e. lying that Democrats should've done a better job of exposing to USA!!

Phyllis Robinson's avatar

Yes we need to remind people to get real id, get the vote out for 2026 but right now protest, protest protest, file lawsuits in the district judges are in our favor , Press Supreme Court to revoke immunity and get a few republicans to cross the room to impeach,We need resistance to be hitting him from all directions all at once before he can recover or regroup hit him again and again🥊🥊🥊🥊💯🫵🏽

We are rising all across this country to fight this gangster coup! We give each other and the Dems courage by our example.

Vel Santic's avatar

Yes, SusannaDana!! The entire tRumputin-eVIlonmusk-jdvance-mikejohnson regime is their fulfillment of their Jan 6th 2021 gangster insurrection, insurgency and terrorism and must NOT be legitimized but fought against!!

Hey Ben How is the family and you doing on this Sunday? I hope y’all had a Great Weekend!! ELBOWS UP INDEED!! That’s All!!

Pam Thompson's avatar

Thank you Ben for all you do to help us save democracy❤️❤️

Kristi_The_Clown's avatar

I posted a satirical piece yesterday saying I wonder how Elon and Fox are going to pin this million+ person march on paid protestors and sure enough, they did. One thing that is consistent about MAGA is their automatic denial of facts when it doesn't suit their fantasy world.
