Remember when it was a joke that MAGA was a cult and its members would need to be deprogrammed some day? It is a joke no longer. There is a group called Leaving MAGA, which is dedicated to just what it sounds like. The red hats are getting hung up nowadays. Raw Story:
“There’s still a lot of fealty to Trump within the MAGA community, but I think most people in MAGA have a red line, and when that line of demarcation is reached, when there’s one lie too many, when there’s one betrayal too many, it makes them start to wonder if Trump is lying about one issue, is he lying about other issues?”
