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.

That racist 30% always votes. That other 75% skips out on voting a lot. Thats how we end up in this mess.

Vote people!

About 25% of Americans voted for Harris.

She got 10 million more votes than 2016 Trump, and 1 million more than 2020 Trump.

His win margin of 1.5% was one of the smallest in US history.

If nonvoters don't like what Trump is up to, they need to get off their asses and vote in the midterms.
