15. The MAGA voters are nothing new:

These are the same people who:

* cheered W's "Mission Accomplished" invasion of Iraq, but then didn't like it when it was a lie and their sons came home damaged. (2003-2008)

* believed Birther conspiracies about Barack Obama because they hated that a black man was president. (2008-2016))

* cheered taxcut for billionaires, but then were upset when Republicans crash the economy. (2001 and 2017)

* listened to Rush Limbaugh gleefully spew hate and lies as they planted then harvested their crops or were on their sales jobs (1990's-2000's)

* voted for Bush 41 mostly because of Lee Atwater's hateful racist Willie Horton Ad (1988)

* Listened to Nixon's Southern Strategy and foreever voted according
(1968)

HERE IS THE ONLY WAY I WILL ACCEPT A REPENTED MAGA:

They must he DONE with Goebellsvision, aka Fox, extremist, Rightwing hate radio, rightwing social media, and, hatefull podcacasters. Otherwise, they're just going to accept the next Trump with the embedded racism
