"Now I understand how somebody like Adolf Hitler was able to brainwash millions of people," Thomas from Hawaii said in a shocking CSPAN call denouncing Trump.
and then chose to ignore their fellow citizens telling them that for years.
Factually incorrect. What you told them was to vote for Democrats who they’d just watched, for four years, ignoring their increasing impoverishment and running immigration policy that was not feasible long-term. And you were always rude, condescending assholes about it.
The vast majority of these people voted for two things: Affordability and immigration enforcement. That’s it. They, as evidenced by their own political activity and Donald’s poll numbers, do not support a Gestapo-style crackdown of Democratic cities nor economic policy that super-charges the inflation and price gouging they endured under Joe Biden. Further, many of these former Trump voters were on the picket lines in Minneapolis too.
And it’s a good thing that they’re speaking out against Donald now. So resist the urge to be a finger-wagging douche about it.

No need for personal attacks, but it does mean I generally won’t be responding to your “points”.
Save for one observation: it’s strange to be upset at and fixate on some generalized boogeymen being “condescending” given the scope of what has happened due to MAGA gaining power. One is some people potentially being rude, while the other is a shared suffering (in some cases losses of careers, losses of savings, even some deaths) because of the poor decisionmaking of a voting bloc.
Point that anger in the right direction. Yes, I’m glad some of those voters are turning around. Still waiting on a tangible result.
