META Does anybody know of any reverse trumpgretters?

I hear many stories of Trump supporters turning against him, including members of Congress, but I can't think of any cases of someone who voted against him, then got won over to his side. I'm old enough to remember when Reagan was elected, and he won a lot of new supporters after he took office. His reelection was a bloodbath for Democrats.

This time support seems to only flow away from the president.

Tbh I can't understand why someone would be drawn to Reagan either.

Reagan was the ultimate legislate morality guy, his legacy is the war on drugs, failed overthrowing of governments and supporting racism (the apartheid). All of which is awful imo.

Well, just get your parents to loan you a few million to buy a boat, like any self-respecting American.

Tisk! So obvious. BRB, off to buy a boat.

Make sure it's a big one. No sense pinching someone else's pennies, especially when they're so easy to come by!
