Just a reminder, none of this has anything whatsoever to do with P O L I T I C S ! !

I think it would be helpful to the conversation if people would constantly point out in any and all social media and conversations, you name it, that talking about MAGA and the piece of shit has absolutely NOTHING to do with politics.

Politics is should rich people pay a 50% tax bracket or a 20% tax bracket or no tax, if you’re an extreme asshole.

Politics is should the government do more or less regulation of the environment and protecting people on the job.

It however has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not you should ZIP TIE SMALL CHILDREN and drag them outside and detain them and imprison them, or whether you should send the MILITARY into cities that did not vote for you.

I think it would be helpful if we constantly point this out in all of our conversations everywhere we go all of the time.

When there is not only no proof of it but proof that it does not, should have nothing to do with their version of “politics.“

I have a friend who used to be a liberal who is now MAGA who got the vaccine for Covid and then he got Covid and then because the piece of shit told him to he took that ivermectin and now he has heart problems and he blames the vaccine. Brain does not work😡

Does anything make sense with Magats?

I literally can't fathom how their minds work,
but I suspect they can't either.
