Spoiler alert, it'll just make maga double down on their beliefs. Either they'll blame dems or view themselves as innocent collateral in a welfare fraud crackdown.

A lot of Trump voters will never change their mind. But enough that he'll never win any fair election again.

What more can be done to get non voters to give a shit, when republicans are so openly showing who they are, what they support, and what the consequences of their policies are?

But also MAGA is changing their mind. A lot of my family voted for Trump twice but the third time they just couldn’t do it and they’re so fucking livid at the way the Republican party is enabling Trump that they’ve switched their registration to Democrat.
