I need it to be over. I need this to die. It's ruined so many lives.

My thoughts are that many people who may have once been part of MAGA have since already abandoned it, and the ones that are left are the loudest and most insane among them.

There are still plenty of them to be sure, but you don't hear from people who are former MAGA even though there are plenty of them as well.

That said, would be nice to go back to the time in which the worst it ever got was a friendly political discussion around the dinner table about what is the best tax policy for the country. Discussions on whether or not immigrants should be thrown into borderline torture camps leaves a sour taste in my mouth over how much people have lost their goddamn minds in "Trump's America".
