I spent some time reading a MAGA message board to try and gauge their reaction to Trump's video yesterday. I am here to report the infighting is DIZZYING, even for me, someone extremely online for two Dem primaries, Louis CK, the dress, the Ghostbusters reboot, and HBO's Girls
At the risk of wading in, which I don't really want to: some people think he's betraying them and giving up on the cause; some people are assuming that when he references the "new administration" coming in, he's merely implying he's gonna ditch Pence and get a new VP
Some think he has a plan; some bemoan he's had no plan all year (but is still the best Prez of their lifetime); some claim the Capitol rioters were Antifa; others admit "this was us," (some with pride, some with revulsion); Ashli Babbitt is either a "martyr" or a "crisis actor"
Occasionally others will suggest they reckon with the L they've taken. These people are often accused of being liberal infiltrators, as if the sheer number of homophobic & ableist slurs they casually pepper their posts with weren't enough to prove their bona fides.
The only thing they seem to agree on was that the election was "stolen."
Oh and that "BLM protests were worse." They seem to agree on that
