MAGA is (mostly) neither hearing nor repeating this shit. Some have gone quiet in the face of the overwhelming bullshit, the rest post typical lib bashing memes on FB and X. The only people repeating Trump's actual talking points are right-wing influencers and politicians. Notice how those posts are in lock-step? They're getting orders/clues from somewhere.

I'll never apologize for them, nor ever forget who they are\were, but you're giving the man-on-the-street way too much credit as to knowing what all Trump is speaking about.

For example, my flag-flying MAGA neighbor likely doesn't know about any of this month's events, except in vague terms, stuff he saw on FB, from the aforementioned influencers.

Maybe I'm nitpicking? Anyway, there's a wide gulf between "official" MAGA and the asshole on the corner.

I suppose that's more than likely true. I have the unfortunate circumstance of having my father be OBSESSED with the Fox News drama show. He's always up to date on exactly what they tell him to believe so I guess I assume more people are like him than maybe really are.

Thankfully I don't live with him or talk to him very often or I'd go insane...
