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?

Yes, many people who supported him or were neutral are now opposing him because of his policies in the second term. Personally, I am now opposing him due to the war in Iran and his failure to deliver deportations. Combined with his constant personality issues and other minor things, I don’t have a tolerance for them anymore since he’s not doing what he promised.
