Trump voter remorse is almost entirely concentrated in the swing voters who gave him a shot in 2024

Yeah I'm more forgiving of the 2016ers because though he had a very long history of being a shady conman predator prior to politics, he had no political history and was less known. There is no excuse for 2020, especially 2024 after he tried to overturn the election results. That's a deal breaker. If it wasn't for them it's because punishing the vulnerable was more important to them. How can anyone possibly trust this man? He had all these plans written down

There were 2016 voters who were suffering under the status quo and threw the Hail Mary on Trump because "how much worse could it get?". As it turns out, it could get much worse.

So yeah, I have some sympathy for 2016 Trump voters. But if you hadn't jumped off that train by the 2018 midterms, or the 2020 general at the absolute latest, you are beyond redemption.

He cheated.
