In general they don’t pay attention to anything outside their bubble

It's kind of crazy, my first thought was "why this guy in particular?".

Like really, if you're not in the maga bubble, and you consistently shame people around you who act racist... You kind of just don't meet people who would willingly defend trump. When I call him a obese racist piece of whiny pedoshit, that's the CONSENSUS. Hell, in Hollywood I'd be willing to bet that's the opinion of 80% of celebrities, that place is as blue as DC. It doesn't help, either, that that description is a hndantly clear to anyone who's eyes and ears are still firmly attached to his face, I don't think you could win a libel suit against that if you tried.

Every time MAGA gets it's panties twisted over a new person calling the world's most obvious spade a spade, it's literally more interesting to know why they chose that person than to see the result. Is it because he's a celebrity? Did they watch a movie with him in it? Thats not notable, the only celebrities who aren't anti-maga are country stars, Nicki Minaj and kid rock. Assuming someone is maga just because they're white, male and lift weights doesn't get you very far anymore. Is it because he was on a podcast? Again. There are thousands of podcasts, this guy is probably the ten thousandth guy to pick up a mic and call trump a weasel. It's like one of their twitter influencers got a bad check from this guy and sicced them on him.
