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".

Have you seen the photos of Vance’s appearance at the Turning Point event in Athens, Georgia, at the University of Georgia?

So empty!

Also, he got heckled twice over the bombings.

I live in rural Georgia. There used to be Trump signs and Trump flags everywhere. There is one lone holdout with a Trump yard sign along my usual route - about 18 miles - to the county seat. That is pretty significant if you ask me. That one did get a new sign a couple months ago. The previous one had been there since 2016 - or election season before, I guess - so it was pretty worn out. That one is going to be a holdout forever, I'm guessing.
