A Reddit comment by user “Damichia480” in the “Conservative” subreddit reads:

It too late he straight up broke every campaign promise.

“No new wars” Bombed iran and is about to fund Urkaine like Biden did

“Mass deportation” not enough and is keeping the illegal immigrants working as slaves and H1B

“I will release the Epstien files” “The flies on my desk” - Pam Bondi. Recanted everything he said and say there no flies and Republicans BLOCKED the release

Patel was hired to take care of the deep state but he is no different from them

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

RIP MAGA we been terribly lied to and betrayed by the people that shouldve served us but they devolved into being part of the establishment.

Hey, OP, per Rule 4, can you add alt text to the post?

Edit: Thanks, OP!

Hands down the dumbest people I've ever personally witnessed in my life or ever read about in the annals of history.

I had no clue before the last decade that people without actual, physical brain damage could be this stupid.

[–] Reygle@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Technically every American in their 40s was poisoned as children with lead in the air we all technically have brain damage. Not saying it's the cause of any of this shit, but pushing everyone down a few rungs sure didn't help things.

My scumbag step-sister and her dumbass husband we're all gung ho about Trump because he was going to "bring America back" and other incoherent hillbilly shit like that. It was funny watching them act like they were anti-Trump from the word go when everyone found out that MAGA meant they were going to lose all the state aid they rely on.

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Just realized that half the people you know are dumb as bricks, and half the country is even dumber than that.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"devolved" lol. always has been buddy.

these people did not learn their lesson, they will look for the next fascist to support.

[–] gabbath@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago

Well they want someone who will follow through on the mass deportations even harder, because apparently masked ICE thugs, legalized vigilantism, bigger than most militaries anti-immigration budget, and concentration camps are "not enough".

[–] Natanael@infosec.pub 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"not enough deportations"? How many drugs are he on?

[–] Wolf 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Right, hundreds of goons daily attacking pretty much any Latino they see, including U.S. citizens and people 'trying to do it the right way' and building a concentration camp in the swamp- but that's not enough for these bigoted assholes.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 4 points 23 hours ago

They where told it would be done in a few days, a massive purge. For the average rasist maga fan, it would never be enough.

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All I see is:

“It’s the leopard’s fault it ate my face, not that I should have been a better judge of character”

[–] Ostrakon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Honestly it's an unreasonable expectation to expect all voters to be excellent judges of character, or even understanding enough about practicalities to identify the better of two bad options. Even if these people had access to better information, would they process it correctly? I can be somewhat understanding of folks who were tricked by these lies given the context that they live in.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Maybe the first time, not twice.

E) actually no, it’s been blatantly obvious since the 80’s

[–] Zexks@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Please let epstien be the catalyst to bring all this shit to an end. So fitting it would be.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

How do we live in a world where the best hope for positive change is the legacy of the leader of a pedophile sex-trafficking operation?

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

When youve got MAGA supporters asking for a sex offender (Matt Gaetz) to investigate a sex offender's ties to a sex offender... It really makes you wonder what they support. After all they were perfectly fine NOT charging Gaetz with paying to transport minors to other states for sex. They decided, well he resigned from a position so that's good enough, we'll find a new one as soon as we can.

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The spell ain't lifting broseph MAGA said all this shit first term but they still kept sucking on it and got him a second term.

[–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’ve known Trump supporters irl since then and this is the first time they’ve cracked.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (8 children)

Will they stay cracked or will they just go back to their knees. That's the real question.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 day ago

Stay cracked. It may take years to work out, though.

No, cults do not have permanent control over peoples minds. People do leave. When there's big events like this that expose problems in the group, lots of people towards the edges will take off. Those who remain are the really devoted ones. It may take decades or even centuries to truly disappear (there's still a few Shakers out there), but MAGA doesn't have to shrink that much before it's no longer a meaningful political force.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

My relatives cannot admit the cracks exist because Mormons support this horseshit and they can’t stray from the church. It’s so goddamn depressing to see otherwise educated adults just parroting idiotic fox sound bites

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 4 points 1 day ago

Did you intend this to sound like that NIN song

The narrative on r/conservative has been broken for days now. Normally by now they are back to talking points. Have they finally broken?

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I love that rather than believe they were lied to, they turn to the "establishment" corrupting their boy, instead of their boy corrupting the establishment. It's almost too funny if you weren't one of the most powerful nations.

[–] Numuruzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

Well hey let's get one thing clear. The establishment was already corrupt. Their mistake is thinking this administration was going to be the ones to fix it because they just bought into the next grift.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (5 children)

To all the liberals reading these diatribes from disillusioned MAGAs, the enemy of my enemy is still my enemy. Even if they feel betrayed by their glorious leader, the things he has done are still within the playbook that those people voted for.

They will never "come around" to seeing what is wrong. They just feel put out cause their sugar daddy didn't give them the car they wanted (the Epstein files). He will inevitably do something horrendous that will get them clapping along to the fascist tune again.

[–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The original quote, "the enemy of my enemy if my friend" isn't about befriending your enemy, it's about using them to fight the bigger enemy.

The goal shouldn't be to get them to become progressive (right now) but to push on how they were wrong, and that Trump is a lie so that they can turn on Trump.

Most of these people are terrible people. But if they're infighting it's better for humanity than if they continue lock in step.

It's wild that this person thinks there isn't enough mass deportation happening. Just goes to show that even as his face gets eaten he's still a shitty human being.

Should get the cleaning staff to look into the flies on your desk.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 138 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Wild that one if their issues is there haven't been enough deporting.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 60 points 2 days ago

That's because the person wants the horrible things to happen and is just mad that Trump isn't following through on the horrible stuff they care about.

And i thought the day would never come.

No matter what Trump does, his supporters find a way to justify it. Let's see this one.

I feel it in my organs. The revolution is ongoing.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 60 points 1 day ago (4 children)

"devolved into part of the establishment"

No dude, they were like this the whole time, but very good at the grift.

Everyone is just casually overlooking the flies on Pam Bondi's desk. Why is nobody asking who shit on her desk?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 1 day ago

It's something that naturally happens whenever she starts talking

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 90 points 2 days ago

Oh look, the useful moron realized he was used. If only they could realize how fucking stupid they are and stop listening to obvious liars merely parroting what they want to hear...

It's worse that that, they didn't devolve into being part of the establishment, they hoodwinked you and played you for fools the whole time.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 49 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Mass deportation isn't enough? If there was any doubt they want to get rid of all non whites this is it.

And anyone against giving Ukraine weapons doesn't know fuck all about history. Everyone thought they could sit out the Nazis until they were invaded.
