When Walmart and the Dollar stores start emptying of low-cost goods, then, and only then, will Trump's popularity drop

with the MAGAs. It has to hit THEM, their narcissistic selves, before they turn on their great leader. Why? Because his appeal has ALWAYS been to their selfishness. He makes them feel like special boys and special girls out fighting the lib'rals (minorities, LGBTQs, proponents of sound economics, the unhateful, etc.).

Like lovers scorned, they WILL turn, or, at least the majority will, as soon as the true economic impact of Trumps disastrous Administration effects them.

Sound about right?

1. No. 40% of Americans are in a cult.

*Nothing* will change their minds!!

2. True, but they are not made of the "stern stuff" that other, those equally evil, have been made of. They'll cave. Quick.

3. No. I have studied cults.

Logic does not apply. Really.

4. So have I. For many years. Much as I despise the original Nazis, I recognize they had a capacity for SACRIFICE for their

beliefs. Same with many others, both political and religious. Most of these people do not have the capacity to sacrifice for anything.

6. No, not only. If Social Security sabotage starts biting first, some will turn. Their 401Ks will turn some too. nt

8. School supplies

Markups one school supplies, which go on sale in the beginning of June and may start hitting ports soon, will give people serious pause. It's something they don't purchase regularly but must purchase a lot all at once.

9. They are ok with another Great Depression

The new talking point is that you’ll become a stronger person when you lose all your money and have to start over.

10. some.might, but not all

Maga is basically another religion. Many of these suckers also throw away their money at church because thats what they have been told to do. God has told them they need to sacrifice now for a future gain. In church they are promised heaven, in maga they are promised power and wealth.

Their maga god tells them they need to sacrifice now for a better america tomorrow.

11. Quick advice: buy now

Noticed over the weekend that some shelves once full of low cost items were starting to look bare. I'm sure that once they are re-stocked shoppers will be in for a rude sticker shock.
