1. The Cult of Trump is still very much alive and well 2. Your hypothetical scenario would be strengthened with the inclusion of an actual candidate who could beat Trump in an upcoming Republican primary 3. And no, the “shrug” emoji is not a valid substitute
I’m not trying to piss you off, but I am trying to illustrate how thoroughly the Republican mainstream is still very much in thrall of Trump. They don’t see things the same way we do.
Anyone who still supports Trump in 2021 believes one of the following things:
1. Trump won the election 2. 1/6 was not a violent insurrection 3. The violence on 1/6 was Antifa’s fault 4. Even if none of the first three are true, they’re okay with it because Democrats are worse
If you see a TRUMP yard sign or truck flag in 2021, it means “I want him to steal the next one.”

I don’t want to say anything too controversial here, but if you support Donald Trump there is something deeply wrong with you.
You don’t care about issues or personal responsibility, and are no longer capable of discerning right from wrong.
It’s 2024. People have access to information. The only rational response to “I support Donald Trump” is “What the hell is wrong with you?”
I know we’re not allowed to say that. I know we have to pretend that having terrible political opinions doesn’t necessarily mean Republicans are terrible people.
But they’re the reason this 275-pound albatross still hangs around our country’s neck.
