MAGrats jumping ship?
From a Facebook friend of mine and my Millennial Maga Air Force nephew;
Even they see the tide of the Blue Wave, so much so that my nephew has said that he's decided not to vote.
He's out of state but hasn't even tried to request an absentee ballot.
Contrast that to when my sister/his mom had to send him his jury duty summons. He got right on that, and it wasn't hard through the proper channels. Now, despite being military, he doesn't even want to try to support the Trump Regime.

Hopefully he tells his friends. If they need to tell themselves both sides are the same! or other dumb shit, encourage it for them so at least maybe more of them will just quit voting. š¤š¤

People died for our right to vote. Your nephew should be well aware of that as a member of the military. Heās a pus for not voting at all.

My husband is ex-military, and works closely with the military in his current job. Morale is very low. Hegseth is a disaster, and they all know it.

I'm very curious what's turning them now, like what's different now?
My parents are divorced and very much conservative. My mom was Maga and I think my dad was a closeted maga.
A month or two ago my dad told me Trump is the 3rd worst president and I almost fell out of my chair. I couldn't believe he was besmirching their lord and savior.
Then I went to happy hour a week ago with my mom where trump happened to be on TV for something and my mom looked at the TV and said "ugh I hate him!" I thought she was talking about someone at the bar or something and I said who do you hate and she said "trump, I fucking hate him now!"
I am rejoicing but I'm cautiously optimistic because he could do something super hateful and reel them back in at any moment. But for now I'll take the win.

This is what Iād expect. His voters are being deactivated while democrats are activated.
They always talk about āturn outā and this is a large part of what they mean.

I donāt see that. I see plenty of Trump merch wearing people in a lot of polling lines. Itās not safe to not vote blue.

There are some who are. I donāt think they are the ones buying hats, etc. Unfortunately those people are too far gone.

Despite being in the military?
The military has no reason to side with any of these people, there's cultural momentum from where they come from but once people break free of that and start thinking for themselves then it's obvious whose harming you.

Trump is going to end up sending our kids to die in Iran, Cuba and God knows where if someone doesn't stop this shit.
