GRAPEVINE, TEXAS — Joseph Bolick feels betrayed by President Donald Trump. And it’s because of the war in Iran.
The 30-year-old Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran voted for Trump in 2024. But at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference gathering this week he sported a hat emblazoned with “America First” — a slogan Trump championed during his campaign, along with the promise not to start new wars in foreign countries.
“He’s lied about everything,” said Bolick. “If you go into a war where there’s no end game, how is it going to end? There’s no clear objective.”


I keep seeing this pattern. I think a lot of former supporters are really sick of his shit and are just looking for the most politically convenient excuse to finally break with him. E.g. Joe Kent.
So… revelations around him being a child predator is not a politically convenient excuse to break with him?
no, he can rape their daughters and they’ll forgive him.
Keep in mind that many of these MAGA folks are in a tribe that will make excuses for anything their idol does, and the tribe will follow because that is what a tribe does. They are in a tribe because they are weak people, mentally and morally.
Sadly, high gas prices and a correction in the stock market are somehow a bigger deal than being exposed as a child rapist.
I hope this is why
