MAGA's will be afraid to cheat...

or

MAGA's will be embarrassed to be MAGA.



You know that there is a reason TSF chose Republicans. His act would have never played on the Democratic side. We don't do group think. We don't do conspiracies. TSF would have been laughed out of the room.

"Republicans are the stupidest voters." Those are the people he needed, he went that way on purpose. And, sadly, they are too stupid to realize that he chose them because of their stupidity. They are also followers. They want to submit to the leader.

And that trend will begin to build on itself as people, particularly those in the middle and / or not tuned into politics, either change their minds or make up their minds. Trends become trendy for lack of a better way of wording it. Most want to be on the winning side or the cool side. Trump sure as shit ain't either this time around.

Keep doing what you're doing. It's working.
