114. All the Maga supporters will still be there
Sat Aug 31, 2024, 10:16 AM
Aug 2024

Remember all the Maga supporters that are supporting Trump and wanting this nastiness are still out there. When another guy like Trump comes along it’ll be just the same old thing.

This wont change until fox news and the like are prevented from spreading misinformation and stoking hatred.

Hopefully trump getting thumped will push some into closets.

When Harris wins we have to enact legislation that safeguards our democracy better.
