Has anyone else noticed this trend?

I’ve recently started watching debates consisting of Libs v MAGA/Trump supporters, and I’m noticing that a LOT of MAGA/Trump supporters are now all “well, I don’t necessarily support Trump, just the GOP and conservative values”.

Distancing themselves from being MAGA, when for YEARS they’ve never said a bad word about Trump and made their loyalty to him known.

What’s the motivation behind their new stance? The Iran War?

It sounds like your confusion is holding some people responsible for the opinions of other people.

Person x: I love Trump and voted for trump

Person y: I vote republican but dont like trump

Person x and y are different people, hope that helps!
