Trump supporters burn Maga hats after he dismisses Epstein files furor as ‘hoax’
(www.theguardian.com)
Yeah, I don’t really expect them to functionally change. When you’re that far down the cult pipeline, very little can be done.
They'll all buy new hats and keep giving this shit bag money, watch.
Idk I know I'm being hopeful thinking they might actually stop taking his every word as gospel. Then again this is the first time I've seen his supporters burn his fucking hate hats
hate hats
You dropped a word, here you go.
Lol ty!
I think you're right, but through hate and bigotry, they did fuck over bud light.
Trump isn't running again anyway and according to the polls republicans are doing just fine before the midterms. Not because people like their policy but because democrats have none.
What polls?
At this point, Democrats hold only a narrow 2-point edge over Republicans on the generic ballot, a far cry from the 7-point margins they held ahead of their victories in the 2006 and 2018 midterms. “It’s not just on the generic ballot where Democrats are behind their 2017 and 2005,” Enten added.
His assessment follows new polling from Trump’s longtime pollster Tony Fabrizio, whose firm found Republicans trailing Democrats 44% to 41% on the generic ballot in districts that were evenly split in the 2024 elections.
Interesting article.
The correct response to anything from any Republicunt from now until 2028 is "OK, but what about the release of the Epstein files?" Never ever let them forget it.
Trump fucked kids with Epstein and everyone knows it. Everyone else who fucked kids with Epstein needs to be held accountable. I don't care what party any of them belong to, they need to be out of society. Every last fucker who is covering this shit up is an enabler and also needs to be accountable.
I’m so tempted to start a store that sells green or orange hats that say “Release the Epstein Files”
How about "release the files" so it's reusable
Return the slab.
"Release the files and shackle the 'philes!"
Make Epstein Conspiratorial Again
Make Epstein Guilty Again
I like it! Unfortunately, you just know they'll make up some new conspiracy about harambe or something and say "Dems stole the files!" Then they'll act like "Release the files" is all about their new distraction
Trump raped kids.
He didn’t stop there!!!
He's raping everybody up in here!
hide your wives
Hide yo rights
Rape for you! Rape for you! Yes, even rape for you!
Let's try not to make low brow jokes about rape. kk?
Sure thing.
This is a cult purge, they'll be forming the parallel of the SS with their most loyal followers.
Hmmm, saying one thing and doing another. Does that sound like republicans to you?
Still, House Republicans voted twice this week to block Democratic attempts to force the public release of all Epstein files within 30 days, with only one Republican, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, voting in favor.
The controversy deepened on Wednesday evening after news that the federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, daughter of former FBI director James Comey, who worked on the criminal cases of both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, had been fired. The justice department provided no specific reason for her dismissal.
I hope the fumes are unpleasant.
They have been breathing leaded gasoline fumes long enough to end up here 🤷♂️
Perhaps they're not woke, but at least they're waking up about how much Trump despises them.
Is burning red MAGA hats how they make the black MAGA hats?
This reminds me of when the Beatles pissed people off and people smashed their Beatles records and then the Beatles weren’t popular anymore…
Then again they didn’t double down on being more popular than Jesus so I guess we shall see.
So here it begins.
I wonder how much of this is just democratic troll farms trying to encourage actual MAGA to abandon Trump.
It's going to be really interesting to see how it plays out with the Rupert Murdoch lawsuit...
The maga civil war has begun…? Hopefully.
It will be short lived. They’d still vote for him. Nothing unites them more than their hatred, desire to piss off the libs, and inflict pain on those they disagree with.
Nothing lasts forever especially in today's trend-swinging world. Just like skinny jeans eventually found their way to the back of the closet, Trump WILL wear off and people will start flipping.
I don't know when that will occur but I am certain it will, just out of basic consumer indoctrination. Heels to flats to heels to flats.
I notice all the Trumpers who found it fun to poke me during the first term are silent now, as if they don't want the subject brought up anymore.
I do believe the same as well. I live in a small rural town with a lot of Trump supporters. Since this Epstein thing has been handled so poorly.A lot of the people who support him have been very quiet. There are a few houses that have a lot of Trump flags and signs all over their house. Most have been replaced with just American flags. But we are still over a year away from midterms so a lot could change either good or bad and with the election still three years awayI am almost certain Trump will still attempt to run for a 3rd term and we will see what his supporters see and feel about that.
