Republicans once swore eternal loyalty. Now, they whisper escape. The cult is cracking, the faithful are fleeing, and Trump’s empire of fear is out of fuel.
I don’t think many republicans that are currently in power will survive the backlash from the American people once it’s fully revealed how they abandoned their oath only to protect Trump.
i agree. except for the truly brainwashed, the rest of American will not forget how they've been lied to and betrayed. It's highly unlikely that most of the herd will be able to migrate fast enough to convince their voters.
Only the most culty of the MAGA cult are strongly behind him. That can't be more than 15% of the population. Another 15% probably have mixed emotion, but I think the nation can't stand him right now as a whole!
The diehard MAGA base is just too ignorant to be swayed by reality... They will stay dumb, they'd still vote for Trump. They will forgive him EVERYTHING.
It's wild how they want to ignore real issues while pushing their cult agenda.
That's why you will trigger them if you wear these kinds of shirts 👇
Hey MAGA, how do feel about Trump's 300 million dollar tacky golden ballroom? But he cares about you and your suffering... Are We Great Yet? Time to wake up. The cult ain't worth it!
yes, sadly, you are right. I've seen comments like, "I still support pres. trump but i don't like what he's doing right now." They rationalize it in their minds. They can't seem to absorb the fact that he's an evil person who doesn't care about them in the slightest.
One thing that does seem to change their minds is diddling minors. Once the files and the alleged photos of him surrounded by topless minors come out, eeuww, even diehard MAGA's will think of their grand-daughters and move away. They are puritans at heart, and no one likes a pedophile.
yes, and I'm willing to bet that there is absolute proof in the Epstein files that he's diddled minors. Look at how he bragged about barging into the dressing room of Miss USA Jr where minor girls were half naked.
I have a neighbor who will never regret her vote. She’s deep in the MAGA cult. In her eyes he can do no wrong. If I say something critical giving her the truth she gives the look of death. She believes everyone on SNAP is cheating the system. Her husband tried to get hired by ICE which shows me they’re racism. He was rejected bcuz he’s 41. I’m happy we’re leaving this red rural town next month for a blue city in a purple state. MAGA is a mental illness.
BUT, if their kids are being given the poisonous trumpism... what if those kids age in VOTERS by 2026? or 2028? Repub party is not going away. They live on anger & retribution.
I think DOJ scrubbed the files and redacted his name, not sure how it will play out, but the true believers won’t budge and will believe any lie —- conspiratorial lies especially. Why do they hang on even in the face of reality? They get their kicks hating and flipping off the Libs, the Party they believe is evil incarnate, that’s their bottom line, their reward, their satisfaction, it nourishes them. Thankfully, yes, these bottom feeders are probably not even equal to, maybe half of the 30% of his MAGA base and are a dying breed just like their chosen one. Tuesday taught us a lot, we the People vote, and we will keep doing so until this unholy alliance between a cruel and incompetent madman, and all his sycophants are gone. Yes we will, because yes we can. Enough is enough.
Only 15%? I realize polls aren't oracles, but Trump's approval rating is still consistently above 35%.
The "diehard MAGA base" didn't come out of nowhere. We've been heading in this direction at least since the white backlash to the civil rights advances of the 1960s and the anti-feminist backlash to Roe v. Wade. And Christian nationalism is very much a thing.
It won’t be left behind, he’ll scrape and pack and cart it away just like he did with those hundreds of classified files tucked into one of his Mara Largo bathrooms.
I hope that people are as fed up with their self serving bs as I am, and that they will see these sudden pleas of reasonality for the dung that is is. Trump is selling Trump-branded wine on military bases ffs. How is that ok?.
I'm sure it's rebranded stuff, but eww, no thank you. The label alone would turn it to vinegar in one's mouth. Like Oz's term "Trump Babies" Ewww.. total turnoff, instant infertility.
I hope you're correct. I see big cracks in the Fascist foundation of the ReTrumplican castle. It would be delightful to see every one of Trump's people lose their power, every last appointee fired and publicly disgraced, ICE goons fired and never get more than a fast food joint job again.
As for Trump, I hope he actually does go to jail for his previous crimes like it should have been before he was allowed to run for president again. I hope he is tried for the murders of the people in every single boat bombed without knowing who the people really are. I hope he's found guilty of crimes against humanity for sanctioning all what ICE has done. Lastly, I hope Trump and the Trump name is forever steeped in shame and laughter by Americans and the rest of the world.
I couldn't agree more with that statement. Voters are very unforgiving when it affects kitchen table issues. We don't like to suffer especially when it was all unnecessary.
It would be cause for celebration if all 4 of the MN R's got their come-uppance in the next election. Emmer, in particular, has been a dyed-in-the-wool tRump toadie for years. Emmer is the poster-child for sycophancy to Dear Larder, er Leader. BE GONE!
I hope it’s nuclear, and dust will be all that is left of MAGA
Ne’r do wells. The Forefathers were so much brighter (intelligent) than you all! Read it again like it’s your first time. Now go directly to article 14 or 25 and grow some BALLS. (Conscience)
I don't think the Forefathers were any more intelligent than we are today - but they were certainly better educated and better read. Even the one's who didn't get much of a formal education worked hard to school themselves. That's what inspired the Carnegie Libraries. Now the education system is totally degraded, educators earn less than garbage men, and the uneducated are distracted by social media. Also, the cult of Anti- intellectualism is running amok.
See the very popular "Malcolm in the Middle" - although brainy Malcolm WAS the "Hero" all the bright kids in his class were either overweight, disabled or nerdy. They actually called them "krelboynes" after the main character in "The Little Shop of Horrors". America will do a lot better when the term "egghead" is seen a term of approval, not disgrace.
Judging by the split in The House; I’d say YES the Forefathers were light years ahead of the worshipers of Trump-a-Nob-Ickes, when it comes to INTELLIGENCE. bar none
The big question people need to be asking is what was DOGE really foing? They were supposedly in these programs to find all the waste!? Instead they were compiling a database for palantier and global surveillance...we all need to be shouting about this also...somebody out there has every person information all accounts numbers phones...they can do anything with it...we need accountability NOW!!!
Funny how people seem to have forgotten that all of our personal information has been completely breached and exposed to only God knows who. I haven’t forgot about it at all and I’m glad you haven’t either.
That’s another law that needs to be written: if the government is shut down, no legislators get paid. However, staff members making less than a certain amount would. 👹
I left my worthless senator, Ron Johnson, a voicemail and email asking him how his taxpayer-funded 39 day vacation was going?? I pointed out that this sounded like (gasp) "welfare" to me as well as "waste, fraud and abuse." Ron Johnson, welfare queen! It's fun to use his haggard welfare queen narrative against him.
Don't get me started. They DEFINITELY should NOT be paid until the republiCRAPS stop being stupid, egotistical, and selfish. I wouldn't show up to work if I were an air traffic controller.......... just imagine if ALL OF THEM DIDN'T.
Thanks, Joanne. Actually, let's hope the air traffic controllers DON'T show up. Don't get me wrong--I feel for the travelers (and of course, the air traffic controllers), but just maybe the Pukes will wake up. (Doubt it, but it's worth a try.). If I were one of them, I would NOT show up. OK--fire me.
Of course, that’s her safety net. But, guess what? He’s a lame duck and she won’t have to. She’s definitely a survivalist though; will be interesting to see if her voters will go along with the obvious dichotomy.
Yes, I agree. Hopefully, she is seeing the light, but I am also skeptical of her motives. She has shown her cruel side like so many others and is now trying to save her own skin, but the cruelty is most likely still there.
The GOP have been performative for too long. Their credibility is imagined. They 'Susan Collin-ed' every decision and have used deceptive rhetoric for the last decade. I WILL NOT believe their sudden conversion to sanity until they prove it with solid votes supporting the American people, which will not happen. They would need to unrig most everything they have done-including Citizen's United, and the slanted Supreme court. So far everything they have said and done has been performative-not substantive- and their only motive is to cover their own pampered asses in order doublespeak their way into the midterms.
The carnival barker no longer has tigers jumping through flaming hoops, or trapeze artists flying through the air. He now only has the clowns and they are starting to throw rocks at each other instead of water balloons. The kids are crying, the parents are in shock and the horrified crowd begins to run for the exits before the big, ugly tent collapses. trump and maga might have thought they were the greatest show on earth, but the elephants are gone and the seats are emptying. The carnival barker and the few demented and deranged clowns that remain will relocate to FL to try and sell more twitcoins. As the rube pit runs dry they will scream at clouds, since those will be the only things listening to them. It can't happen soon enough...
Four of the largest airports on all coasts of Florida are tagged to close operations down by 10% this week.
All those snowbirds heading down to Florida before Thanksgiving for their winter home are going to be really pissed when they can't get on a plane that they already have a ticket for!
And they're going to want to know why and ultimately they're going to blame trump.
And a large percentage of Canadians are selling their Snowbird homes and relocating to friendlier confines such as Mexico. FL tourism is in the dumps along the sleazy governor and legislature. Spring break will be trump broken.
I’d like to mention one thing that I’ve been thinking about. As republicans try to run from trump, they’ve really got nowhere to go. Trump has bought up the republican party lock, stock & barrel. He took over the RNC, installed his daughter in law as its leader and he runs their major super PACs. He controls it all and he is loyal to no one but demands blind loyalty. Republicans that are done with trump have a choice: start a new party or join the Democrats. They deserve this predicament of their own making. Meanwhile there needs to be a law that bars an individual from taking over a party and creating a Cult of Personality. We don’t do Kings here. We need two strong, independent, HONEST parties to keep each other in check.
Until Schumer just gave all the Dem power from the last days right back to Republicans. Why does Schumer always hand the ball back to Republicans every time Dems get the ball?!
"Tonight, I say this to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain." Liz Cheney.
I don't think Republicans in Congress will get absolution from their constituents any time soon. Not only did they support a monster to keep their seats, they stood silent while he did monstrous things. And they all endorsed a cabinet of monsters, then sat on top of the Epstein files, replete with alleged photographs of old Donald surrounded by topless minors.
Rapes. Selling your personal info. Taking bribes. Extortion. Threatening war on (former) allies. Causing economic mayhem and ruin with trading partners. Demonizing non-white Americans. Terrorizing the populace with ICE thugs. Suborning the Supreme Court. Plundering the Treasury. Using office to engineer stock market manipulations, and crypto manipulations. Lauding dictators. Closing the Department of Education. Reducing medical coverage and health care accessibility. Tax breaks for decades for billionaires. Senseless destruction of the historic and beloved East Wing.
All these things elected Republicans endorsed with their silence. They need to be voted out of office. They are untrustworthy, open to any compromise to keep their seats, they have dishonoured themselves and their offices. Vote them out. Clean the slate and drain the swamp.
I hope with the backlash from the American people there will also be plenty of orange jumpsuits for the traitors to our country. Great post. Thank you Michael.
I’m trying to give MTG the benefit of the doubt, however I can’t help feeling it’s like Lucy holding the football waiting for Charlie Brown to kick it and pulling it out from under them at the last minute. You’re absolutely right about them protecting themselves. They don’t care about Americans
mtg is just REALLY PISSED that trump DIDN'T give her a position in his administration after she sucked up to him all those years!! Now she's got to save face and fight back!
Seems mtg was even TOO CRAZY and unpredictable for even trump!!
Even a broken clock is right twice a day. MTG is not reliable or predictable, and failed to act when she could have spared others harm and pain. She's only acting now because she's taking damage. Not good enough.
I just started reading a book that talks about how people view the world due to their upbringing, where they grow up, etc. One thing that is made very clear is how RARE it is for someone to change their world view.
How does someone go from a conspiracy nut job to a "normal" human being? Is she on meds? I don't know; but, I agree with the poster that if she truly has changed we should see her voting record reflect her new beliefs.
I don’t think many republicans that are currently in power will survive the backlash from the American people once it’s fully revealed how they abandoned their oath only to protect Trump.
i agree. except for the truly brainwashed, the rest of American will not forget how they've been lied to and betrayed. It's highly unlikely that most of the herd will be able to migrate fast enough to convince their voters.

Grab them by the pussy should have been enough for everyone but oh no that was silly locker room talk
BS
That is sexual misconduct plain and simple
Those people have a single track brain.
I have a neighbor who will never regret her vote. She’s deep in the MAGA cult. In her eyes he can do no wrong. If I say something critical giving her the truth she gives the look of death. She believes everyone on SNAP is cheating the system. Her husband tried to get hired by ICE which shows me they’re racism. He was rejected bcuz he’s 41. I’m happy we’re leaving this red rural town next month for a blue city in a purple state. MAGA is a mental illness.
The maga cult will give the poisonous Kool-Aid to their own children and then take it themselves.
The diehard maga WILL go down with the trumptanic!
Good the fuck riddance!!!
There’s no point in trying to reach the segment of the MAGA base that’s jumping for joy over their own pain. They’re beyond saving!
I remember when Trump on the campaign trail said: “I care about your vote, I don’t care about you, I care about your vote” and they CHEERED 🤦♀️
BUT, if their kids are being given the poisonous trumpism... what if those kids age in VOTERS by 2026? or 2028? Repub party is not going away. They live on anger & retribution.
And anger is exhausting!
They're finding that out now!
I think DOJ scrubbed the files and redacted his name, not sure how it will play out, but the true believers won’t budge and will believe any lie —- conspiratorial lies especially.

If they're smart they'll have made copies before any files are scrubbed!
trump KNOWS that the Epstein files are NEVER EVER going away!
Someone will hold those files over his head the rest of his life!
I think that's why he looks so close to death now! Gawd he looks bad!!!
Hallelujah!
I think it’s already happened, but hope like you someone, somewhere has the originals.
NASTY describes him in my mind
Only 15%? I realize polls aren't oracles, but Trump's approval rating is still consistently above 35%.

It's called the Epstein Ballroom!
Kennedy Center attendance is down 47% since he took over and donations are failing.
The ballroom will be a little harder to dismantle than the tacky gold(?) leaf crap in the Oval Office.
It won’t be left behind, he’ll scrape and pack and cart it away just like he did with those hundreds of classified files tucked into one of his Mara Largo bathrooms.
About as great as cow pies in the field
I hope that people are as fed up with their self serving bs as I am, and that they will see these sudden pleas of reasonality for the dung that is is. Trump is selling Trump-branded wine on military bases ffs. How is that ok?.
Can you imagine that swill!
I'm sure it's rebranded stuff, but eww, no thank you. The label alone would turn it to vinegar in one's mouth. Like Oz's term "Trump Babies" Ewww.. total turnoff, instant infertility.
I hope you’re right.
Yeah once they try to take over our country and deport & kill people because of skin color, they can say goodbye to politics.
I hope you're correct. I see big cracks in the Fascist foundation of the ReTrumplican castle. It would be delightful to see every one of Trump's people lose their power, every last appointee fired and publicly disgraced, ICE goons fired and never get more than a fast food joint job again.

Let’s hope so!!!!
Everyone is tired of kissing his ass. I hope it falls like a house of cards
I hope it’s nuclear, and dust will be all that is left of MAGA

Anti-intellectualism in American Life...always been strong here, in grade school I was very shy, playground insult I feared most was "egghead"...
See the very popular "Malcolm in the Middle" - although brainy Malcolm WAS the "Hero" all the bright kids in his class were either overweight, disabled or nerdy. They actually called them "krelboynes" after the main character in "The Little Shop of Horrors". America will do a lot better when the term "egghead" is seen a term of approval, not disgrace.
Love the Handle!!! 🤣🎶

If charged with treason and found guilty the whole administration can be removed
Yes! and not soon enough. Do they even realize their complicity in the illegality of it. Everyday. Every hour.
YEAHHH AND RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILESSSSS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Make it a documentary to play endlessly on the web for everrrrrr.
“The Pedofile Papers”
The big question people need to be asking is what was DOGE really foing? They were supposedly in these programs to find all the waste!?

Musk just made a Trillion dollars. Let's not forget about him. 😡
Believe me, I haven’t.
Why does Congress get paid? They don’t show up but expect air traffic controllers to show up without pay
That’s another law that needs to be written: if the government is shut down, no legislators get paid. However, staff members making less than a certain amount would. 👹

Good for you. Donna! He's my worthless senator too and sounds like a good idea for me to email him also.
Just FYI just sent my email. Said alot of the same things you did. At least we let him know we aren't buying GOP bullshit!
Don't get me started. They DEFINITELY should NOT be paid until the republiCRAPS stop being stupid, egotistical, and selfish. I wouldn't show up to work if I were an air traffic controller.......... just imagine if ALL OF THEM DIDN'T.

REPS in Congress, you mean.
Exactly, seal!
When MTG started speaking out, you could tell "the reckoning" was starting. Thank you for your insight on what's happening.
Still doing trust MTG. Look up Jasmine Crockett's take on her speaking out.
She is speaking out but at the same time, she states she still loves Trump and would vote for him again, regardless.
Of course, that’s her safety net. But, guess what? He’s a lame duck and she won’t have to. She’s definitely a survivalist though; will be interesting to see if her voters will go along with the obvious dichotomy.
She MTG wants a Senate Seat in GA I bet.
She wants something, what it is not exactly clear, other than to save her ass as the worm turns.
I'm still stunned by what's she said but glad she said it. It's too bad she didn't "wake up" earlier than now.
Yes, I agree. Hopefully, she is seeing the light, but I am also skeptical of her motives. She has shown her cruel side like so many others and is now trying to save her own skin, but the cruelty is most likely still there.
Yup, very skeptical!!
We voted for competence and compassion on Tuesday. We voted for people with courage and integrity.
Like Joe Biden.
Why didn't people vote like this in November??!!
He pushes, we the people push back harder. The blue tidal wave has begun!
The GOP have been performative for too long. Their credibility is imagined. They 'Susan Collin-ed' every decision and have used deceptive rhetoric for the last decade. I WILL NOT believe their sudden conversion to sanity until they prove it with solid votes supporting the American people, which will not happen. They would need to unrig most everything they have done-including Citizen's United, and the slanted Supreme court. So far everything they have said and done has been performative-not substantive- and their only motive is to cover their own pampered asses in order doublespeak their way into the midterms.

GREAT POST! AND SO TRUE!! ROCK ON!!
Great post today Michael.
I’d like to mention one thing that I’ve been thinking about. As republicans try to run from trump, they’ve really got nowhere to go. Trump has bought up the republican party lock, stock & barrel. He took over the RNC, installed his daughter in law as its leader and he runs their major super PACs. He controls it all and he is loyal to no one but demands blind loyalty. Republicans that are done with trump have a choice: start a new party or join the Democrats. They deserve this predicament of their own making. Meanwhile there needs to be a law that bars an individual from taking over a party and creating a Cult of Personality. We don’t do Kings here. We need two strong, independent, HONEST parties to keep each other in check.
Start with toothy campaign finance laws. No more big money buying politicians.
The Republicans are finally finding out what we already know!!
What DECADES of HISTORY have shown us ALL... trump has NO LOYALTY to ANYONE ELSE EVER!!
Chumps gonna be Chumps!
Facts, Bare, unadulterated facts. Fine work as always Michael.
Until Schumer just gave all the Dem power from the last days right back to Republicans. Why does Schumer always hand the ball back to Republicans every time Dems get the ball?!
Schumer needs to hit the road already !
Absolutely. He is way past his sell by date. Let one of the fierce women lead. Pelosi did a Hell of a job for many, many years.
Schumer only agreed to meet with republicans if they teleased the sanctions on healthcare and Trump

mtg is just REALLY PISSED that trump DIDN'T give her a position in his administration after she sucked up to him all those years!! Now she's got to save face and fight back!
Seems mtg was even TOO CRAZY and unpredictable for even trump!!
Just think.... even trump didn't want her around.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day. MTG is not reliable or predictable, and failed to act when she could have spared others harm and pain. She's only acting now because she's taking damage. Not good enough.
I totally agree with you, Janet. She’s only looking out for herself as far as I’m concerned because she’s up for reelection next year.
I just started reading a book that talks about how people view the world due to their upbringing, where they grow up, etc. One thing that is made very clear is how RARE it is for someone to change their world view.
