No, really. Why did it take you that long?

You know, there are few things as aggravating as watching Republican voters realize they've been duped or that they voted for the wrong candidate.
I don't fudge words when I say that Trumpism is a cult — a political cult that's turned somewhat religious. A lot of the most hardcore of the conservative world genuinely seem to believe that Trump is Jesus.
Some called Obama the Antichrist. Some claimed Trump was the reincarnation of Jesus, which is hilarious because he's a horrible person. And they voted red because "God told them to."
A lot of people are asking if Trump is the Antichrist and that's a massive fall from grace.
I'm not going to get into the Trump cult vibes today, but I will say this: it's pretty bad. There are actual people who straight up try to pray to Trump in Q-Anon circles. The media even painted him as "God's Chosen President," no lie.
Ironically, if they had ever read the Bible, they would have realized that Trump is not Jesus. Actually, there's a lot more suggesting he's the Beast than anything else — and that's me just talking straight from the Bible.
In fact, the similarities between Donald Trump and the Antichrist aren't even just a Christian thing. It's also a Muslim thing. A senior cleric from Iran recently announced that he thinks that Trump is al-Dajjl, which translates into "The Great Satan."
These days, some of the most famous Trumpers are calling him an Antichrist.
I’ve often noted that I don’t believe a lot of the politicians in his vicinity believe he’s Jesus or God. However, it’s still damning to hear them do a full 180 on Trumpism.
Marjorie Taylor-Green, a GOP operative known for her loudmouth behavior, started to speak up once Trump started to AI himself as Jesus Christ. She’s quoted as saying, “It’s more than blasphemy. It’s an Antichrist spirit.”
Another right-wing talk show host named Clint Russell said, “In 18 months I went from hesitantly voting for Trump to thinking there’s a decent chance he’s the Antichrist.”
What made them change?
Simple: it started when Trump started to show artwork of him as Jesus Christ and when he started to mock that Catholic Church. It’s considered to be a high form of blasphemy — not to mention a super tacky move.
When your entire platform is designed on being the “holy, moral majority,” the worst thing you can do is unholy something. That’s precisely what Trump did. He made one too many jabs at the Christian church with his memes.
Of course, people like Tucker Carlson have other reasons to hate him. Along with tanking Carlson’s career in his own way, Trump upset Carlson with the war in Iran. According to Carlson , that was an “Antichrist” type of move.
Others seem to have chosen to get off the Trump train after being burnt by the Orange Fuhrer himself.
Most of the people speaking out about their belief in Trump being the Antichrist are influencers…
Right now, most of the people starting to backpedal on their GOP beliefs are influencers. And, to a point, that’s to be expected. Conservative culture is all about following the leader, pulling rank, and staying in line. People will not say a peep unless their leadership says it’s okay to do so.
Influencers have an undue amount of power in the conservative politics world. If influencers start pulling back from Trump, that means that other people are going to start doing the same — often in shockingly large numbers.
Many Trumpers have already started to show a little bit of quiet regret, often by backing away from the Trump train without saying anything. You might have noticed people taking down Trump gear from their front lawns or scratching off bumper stickers.
That’s about as vocal as most followers will get: the quiet removal of gear, so they have plausible deniability. Most Trumpers will not be open about feeling like they made a mistake until they see others who are more respected than them say it.
…But this is a huge, huge deal on a macro scale.
You might be wondering why it’s such a big deal that influencers are calling Trump the Antichrist. This is a big deal because it’s a major chip in the armor of the GOP’s propaganda cult.
Cults rely on leaders to tell people what to do, what to say, and how to think. A lot of cultists get so far gone that they will only even hit the pause button if they hear a fellow cult member who they respect talk about how something isn’t right.
I’ve said this before, but a lmost every single cult member who finally leaves has that moment. You know the one, right? That moment is the moment when they realize that their cult leader is full of shit, when they realize the cult is just making their lives hell in exchange for a prize that doesn’t exist.
This is what I call the “Click Moment” and it’s a powerful experience.
Sometimes, the Click Moment happens when you’re in the cult and you realize you really, really miss your mom and dad. Or sometimes, it’s the first time the cult leader hits you. Or the first time you get assaulted, tell an elder, and have the elder tell you it’s your fault.
What most people don’t realize is that many cult members will have multiple moments like this but still won’t budge. It’s only when they feel they have permission to “CLICK” that they actually shuffle away from this.
What does this look like, you ask?
Well, it’s simple. It starts off with someone they respect telling them something along the lines of, “You know, I regret voting for Trump. I shouldn’t have promoted him. I knew he was awful and here I was.”
Hearing this from a liberal means nothing. Hearing it from Tucker Carlson or an Evangelical pastor will mean something because these people were literally conditioned to hear their word as gospel.
That’s one of those moments when they get forced to address the reality of the situation. They have to sit there and think of the obvious: if that person they trusted so much is saying this, is their entire world a lie? Are they being lied to? Who’s telling the truth?
That’s what some people might call a reality-breaker, the equivalent of being force-fed a red pill that makes you realize you were living a lie. Now, you can either try to lie to yourself about what you’re doing to tamp down on that dissonance, or actually heal yourself by accepting what happened.
So what happens after the Click occurs as people denounce Trump?
It depends on the person.
Some will never change because they are too far gone, too far in, or too invested to back out. This is why there are s urvivors of the Heaven’s Gate cult who still moderate the site, answer emails, and talk about their leader as “ascended.”
The deeper the brainwashing and the higher the loss, the more likely it is that you will see people stuck like that. Even if they are not totally stuck, they may never fully deconstruct from what they believe. Some will be perma-fried.
However, most start to edge away from it — especially if it becomes socially unacceptable to actually voice those beliefs. A lot of cult members want a literal safe space to deconstruct without feeling judged for being part of the cult.
You’ll start seeing them get quieter first. Then, they may start to talk about the things they don’t like about the movement. They may just stop posting. Then slowly, they will distance themselves from the cult and eventually start asking questions about who they are without Trump.
A lot of this will be done undercover. You won’t see much of it. All you can do is wait while they sort themselves out. If they get far enough in their deconstruction, they may be ready to reach out to those they wronged or betrayed via their votes.
You will not know how much they’ve grown until they show you and many will try to hide it for as long as they can.
What I’m saying is, have a little faith and a little understanding.
It’s not much right now. I know it’s not. I’m also not saying that you have to forgive Trumpers who do deconstruct. However, for those of us who are hoping and praying that there is a chance that a Q-Anoner or a hardcore MAGA might change, there’s good news on the horizon.
Sometimes, that’s all we need to hear: a little hopeful news.

There are billboards just north of Corsicanna TX along Rt 45 on private property that used have stupid shit about Obama being a monkey and a DemonCrat.
Now they have evolved to an evolutionary sign on both sides of the highway with something like this for the last year
this past month they knocked off modern man and put Jesus there instead.
We will try to get a picture this weekend.
the neanderthals have returned with a vengeance and they're looking to even the score ...
the religious anti-choice billboards along the interstates and all the small towns with a lit cross on a hill out in bfe texas ...
I swear there's this one intersection in a commercial/industrial zone that has 5, maybe 6 churches in strip malls and old warehouses.
My little town of 30K probably has more churches than restaurants.
LOL, yeah I can understand that. The town I grew up in was only 930 but we also had more churches than restaurants. We had three churches but the Protestant one couldn't keep their doors open as the congregation was too small. We had two restaurants, small mom & pop places. But how many bars did your town have? Mine had 11 within city limits and two more that were within walking distance just outside the city limits.
a spiritual food court redirecting vast sums of righteous bucks from the faithful to those doing the work of the lord ...
We have no bars because I live in a dry county. However, most of the sit down restaurants have a "club" license and can serve booze
Most of the Trump cult will stay with him until the bitter end. There are some that will wake up and smell the coffee but they will always be a small minority of the cult.
Yep. Just like Jim Jones, David Koresh, and Marshall Applewhite (Heaven's Gate dude)
They all had an ignominious ending
based on those 3 nuts and what happened to their most deadicated followers in the end, I'm feeling much better about the maga cult's direction now ...
Too many are unwilling to admit they were wrong. Their egos won't stand for that.
They will have to face the music some day
they've all graduated to rodent and prairie dog status in my mind. I'm just waiting for them to exit the city limits of patriotism.
They would rather live the rest of their lives with their heads buried in the sand.
I have an in-law who is just such a MAGA. All evidence regarding Trump is either fake news, liberal slander, or AI. And he will repeat that while refusing to look for himself.
