There, there, Li'l MAGAts

We understand how humiliating it must be to realize that your Dear Leader isn't who you thought he was.

There's no shame in the fact that you got taken-in by a weak, lying bullshit artist. It could happen to anyone who watched as his 'university' was declared a scam by the court, and his 'charity' was shut down because he was pocketing the money, but still believed he was an honest man.

Surely you couldn't be expected to know that a serial adulterer accused by multiple women of sexual assault and who declared himself a 'pussy-grabber' might not actually be a good Christian, anointed by God to lead a nation.

When you donated your hard-earned money to Trump organizations that don't exist, why on earth would you ever have suspected you were being grifted - any more than when your ridiculously over-priced Trump/America First merchandise arrived bearing 'made in China' labels?

Who could possibly fault you for not realizing that a man slathered in orange makeup talking about non-existent countries, cancer-causing wind-turbines, and shutting down airports during the Revolutionary War might not be quite as smart as he kept bragging he was?

It's not your fault that while Trump was documented as having told over 30,000 lies during his tenure in office, you never heard a single one of them. You were probably preoccupied with anticipating that check coming in from Mexico to pay for The Wall, or waiting for COVID to magically disappear as promised.

Sure, the red flags were there all along, flashing like neon signs. But the fact that you missed them all - over, and over, and over again - doesn't necessarily mean that you're as stupid as you seem to be.

So don't cry, boys and girls, now that you're learning the truth about your America-loving 'pResident' who tried to overturn the very government he swore to serve and protect.

Being duped, grifted, extorted, lied to, misled, and played for patsies by a treasonous bastard could happen to anyone - except it didn't happen to everyone, it only happened to you.

They don’t feel duped. Sometimes I think they feel emboldened and I can’t relate. Not that I want to by any stretch of the imagination

Bless their li'l MAGAt hearts.

But, it was an interactive thing, and if he dropped dead this afternoon they'd need a new leader. Reportedly, authoritarians will support and forgive anything their leader does -- except fail. But if he fails and they drop him, they'll also need a new leader.

They've gotten used to spewing their racist, sexist, hateful shit all over public knowing that the "president" was supporting them and standing right behind them.

Now no one is propping them up.

Oh boo hoo.
