Dec 2024

Their leader is the most profligate liar in American political history.

Most MAGA voters are clueless about the impact Republican (aka Trump) policies will have on their lives.

Prices will go up, not down.

Government services they depend on will be cut.

Funds for the earned benefits they paid for will be transferred to the wealthy elites.

They will pay more for medical coverage. Many will discover the "Obamacare" they hate is actually the Affordable Care Act that insures them.

Diseases formerly kept at bay by vaccines can cut their lives short, along with unregulated environmental toxins.

The ravages of catastrophic climate change will destroy more homes, businesses, and lives.

Were those consequences communicated in Republican messaging?
