> Nice that MAGA demands accountability from Trump in a way Democrats don't from their leaders.

What planet do you live on?? I don't see any blowback against Trump himself from MAGA followers. It's always "he's getting bad advice", or they blame his sycophants like Bondi. If MAGA demanded accountability from Trump they seemed to be totally fine when he was caught boasting on tape of committing sexual assault.



not sure where you are looking but Rasmussen polls have been showing Trump hemorrhaging support since June among his base. if you visit X this is where many of them converse, and they are quite openly unhappy with the admin lately


I believe it has nothing to do with sexual offense and that the higher prices of goods is really affecting people.

So he's still immune the anything that's horrendous.


I think most people are talking to the core 30-40% of his voters see him as messianic that will go down with the titanic no matter what


guess you can believe what you want but data shows the Epstein topic has been damaging his base support


Some indicators suggest that, but we don't really know until the rubber meets the road.

The real test is how people vote. With this much confusion I think it is perfectly valid to take a few opinion polls with a grain of salt.

Much like how Dems rate their party poorly but still turn it against Trump, I'm not sure MAGA discontent with have any real impact on elections.


MAGA will follow Trump off a bridge. The America First collective pushed for this and many of them have given up on Trump.


This is what I expect as well, the cultish members will never see him for what he is no matter what happens. I've seen similar sentiment toward dictators in other countries as well, especially if you talk to the older civilians who really bought into the system, even years after the dictator was overthrown.


There has been a very public split between MTG and Trump in the past week or so over the Epstein issue. It has been causing a rift in the MAGA base for a while though, it seems to be coming to a head now though.
