Every time a MAGA voter says, "This is not the Trump I voted for", my reply is, "This is exactly the Trump you voted for. Because Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do, but mentally you just filtered out all the evil, crazy, stupid initiatives he presented throughout the campaign. He even published his entire plan in the document "Project 2025", but you chose not to read it. YOU chose to walk blindly off the cliff, because the tour guide was a great entertainer. YOU did that."
@randahl "Well, do you still have access to whatever universe hopping machine you used to get here? Because this is the only Trump that's existed in this one."
@randahl Greetings, I came across your profile on a dark web scam recovery platform. As a professional cyber hacker, I focus on assisting individuals in tracking down and apprehending scammers, ultimately aiming to recover lost funds. Have you ever been a victim of a scam or are you currently communicating with someone you suspect might be a scammer?
@randahl
I am Brazilian.
I survived four years under Bolsonaro
(who has now been sentenced to 27 years in prison).
I hope the same happens to you.
@randahl do people really say this is not the Trump they voted for? Is that a thing now?
@ProcessParsnip I have heard that in videos multiple times where MAGA voters complain about everything from inflation to getting fired to losing customers — this is not why I voted for Trump, this is not the Trump I voted for, or something synonymous.
@randahl Stupid is as stupid does
@randahl Publicly they are saying this isn’t what they voted for. Privately they are cheering.
Believe me; I have met MAGA folks and heard what they say when they think it’s only other MAGA around them.
@randahl
I know people just like that.Unfortunately, you can't change their mind.They are stuck in that mindset.
I did tell someone that they really need to stop lying. That...went over well.
@randahl I had to explain to a friend that the Republican party is not being misrepresented. The Republican party is misrepresenting YOU.
@randahl Not only that, they are still grinning ear-to-ear at all the lib ownership going on
@randahl I think we've talked about this before, but the thing I want everyone who is surprised by how this is going, whether they voted for Trump, or Harris, or didn't vote, doesn't matter. If a body is surprised at what's happening, I really really really need them to take a deep look at where and how they get their information, and then try to find ways to get information that are similar to people who weren't surprised.
@randahl I completely agree with all of this, but a more important point, to me, would be that, if they're disallusioned with the reality of Trump that they are currently experiencing, maybe we can get them on side.
@randahl
Does that change anyone's mind?
I'm going with, "it is, we knew about the Project 2025 and Epstein stuff but too much media smothered it. You were fooled by what looked like reporting."
I KNOW too many of them sought out being fooled. But we need to get them to *act differently* and they're probably resentment-activated.
I would be more gentle, but doing everything possible to encourage their disillusionment.
