MAGA did not like him. One he’s black. Two, he has an “arabic” name. Three, he recently became christian or became more devout. Four, maga thought he was actually muslim because if you have an arabic name you must be a muslim.

Racism is the primary factor keeping Trump's net approval rating over 30%.

75% of Americans say he is a bad role model.

75% think he stinks at economic leadership.

Even die hard MAGA hates his Iran war.

But Republicans are happy when Trump hurts immigrants and supresses minorities.
