I don't see that at all. The only MAGA that I'm still connected to on Facebook hasn't posted anything about the Abrego Garcia situation since it happened. He's literally doing the Homer thing, and the shrubs are his other posts about the weather and stuff. He went from posting about Trump all the time to kinda pretending like he doesn't exist.

Meanwhile, the MAGAts around my parents' house in the middle of rural Indiana have taken down all of their Trump flags. They were already at a low ebb before the election; now there are only two houses with Trump signs up on my route to their house, and I'm pretty sure one of them is owned by an old woman who can't walk.

This just isn't happening on the ground. Only on Fox, as far as I can tell.

My MAGA friend just said due process is only for citizens. I stopped trying to debate with him, he’s too far gone. I’m depressed about it.

Very disappointing. How does he say he's expected to prove that he's a citizen without due process? I've been wondering.

Unconditional trust in the MAGA authorities, plus unconditional disdain for all other authorities (trumps convictions are unjust politically motivated prosecution, he did nothing wrong). He turned his brain off years ago and just lets fox news think for him.

He doesn't actually have an answer? Even more disappointing.

"What if a socialist demonrat accused you of being a noncitizen? How would you prove them wrong?"

Correct, no answer. It just cant happen.
