What could get Trump cultists to stop supporting him at this point?

A videotape of him jerking off Arnold Palmer in the shower while screaming "Hitler is my homeboy" ???

Raping a toddler in front of an audience at one of his rallies?

Anything?

A video of him getting pegged by Hillary while sucking Hunter Biden's cock would probably do it. If you managed to convince them it wasn't a deepfake, that is.

To understand his cult, you have to understand it isn’t about the person Trump, but about the fact that everyone knows he is for sale and will push any draconian law through, as long as you promise him a big cheque.

Wake me up when they post something worth getting up for.

At this point, it’s hard to imagine anything dissuading the voters on either side from voting for their candidate.

A massive group Kool-Aid drinking ceremony?

I read a couple bits from January 6 insurrectionists whose cases had come to trial. They felt bitterly betrayed that their actions had consequences and blamed him. Not that I think there’s a way to translate that into votes for Harris and other Democrats. That would need both forethought and the willingness to go against people in their churches, not to mention growing beyond their racism.

Nope. He has a stranglehold on them.

by Anonymousreply 6October 23, 2024 8:36 PM

Nothing will deter the Trump crowd from voting for him. We already know what an appalling cunt he is. They don’t care.

He groped her too, apparently

NOTHING. Trumpism is larger than trump.

I rarely talk politics, but I have been planting seeds among the Trump cultists I know. I shake my head and we talk about how rigged the elections are and I urge them in a gentle way, more by suggestion, that it's just "why even bother to vote?" I think in some cases it is working.

by Anonymousreply 10October 24, 2024 12:52 AM

r10, if they listen to you for advice or ever act on any suggestion you make, I totally agree that they're idiots.

The majority of Trump voters either don't know who Hitler was or think he was an ally (but don't know which war was involved.)

There's that somewhat famous quote once made by corrupt Louisiana governor, Edwards, while he was running for re-election back in 1983, when he boasted:

[quote] The only way I can lose this election is if I'm caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy.

At this point, I think Dump's supporters would probably forgive the part about "a dead girl."

"A live boy" would be questionable.

by Anonymousreply 15October 24, 2024 1:17 AM

I think a live boy would be fine too. Maybe a live "they."

by Anonymousreply 16October 24, 2024 1:19 AM

I was going to say "nothing," but after reading the toddler-rape idea ^^, I do think there are a couple of things that would do it. It would have to be shocking and done right in front of their eyes. Other than the live kiddy-assault, it could be him going completely gaga in front of an audience and chopping up people with an axe, or it could be him having a massive stroke or heart attack--also in public--soiling himself and foaming at the mouth.

In fact, on further consideration, I think that last one is the only type of thing that would make them turn against him. They will excuse anything from him except weakness or frailty. Complete loss of physical control and public self-humiliation just about works.

I read the DM comments each day and the one uniting factor between the left and the right seems to be a love of animals. Many will even upvote a comment against Trumps Jr and their ridiculous trophy kills.

Possibly if he were on video abusing an animal that might be the visceral reaction a Trump supporter would need to finally walk away in disgust.

by Anonymousreply 19October 24, 2024 1:36 AM

Yeah, that might do it, too, R19.

It's hard to deprogram the hardcore cultists.

Now, the 'going along with the ride' type, they can be swayed....if something affects them very directly, then they'll turn.

And, there's the Repubs just voting for him because he's the Repub candidate but don't like Trump or actively dislike him. If they had someone else to vote for, they would. I mean, if Mitt Romney had run, he would have divided that ticket. Which is why both sides come down hard on anyone who will do that.

He could call for a mass suicide if he wanted to - millions of people believe god sent him to earth to fight demons who feast on infants.

by Anonymousreply 23October 24, 2024 2:12 AM

He has a hold on a certain percentage of his core voters that nothing will shake. He could rape them and they'd vote for him. They scream for his shit.

The top three things:

Injuring a small child/infant - slapping them, etc.

Injuring an animal - particularly a dog

Injuring a very elderly person - shoving an old lady with a cane to one side, say.

In terms of non-moral failing, visibly shitting himself would give some people pause.

That would be the first action he could take that I would wholeheartedly support.

For the true Trump-Cult Crazies, nothing. They'll explain away anything that comes up. Even if it's video, they'll just say it's a deepfake. They're all too dedicated to the lie of Donald Trump. It satisfies an emotional and psychological need they have, and it's too hard for them to let that go.

by Anonymousreply 27October 24, 2024 12:10 PM

As others have aptly noted, if you support Dump after January 11th, you're ride or die at this point, though I think in many cases, MAGA types hate Dems more than they necessarily love Dump. I have some MAGA co-workers (evangelicals, of course) who go on & on about how they HATE dems, without any (apparent) awareness that those very people are sitting across the table from them. I think the best you can hope for is that these people feel so disillusioned that they don't vote - though they'll probably shoot up a Walmart in despair because they think their little white world is crumbling.

by Anonymousreply 28October 24, 2024 12:16 PM

Honestly, he could be dead and they’d still vote for him.

by Anonymousreply 29October 24, 2024 12:17 PM

His base doesn't care what he does. He's speaking their language.

R29 is correct.

Probably is dead and this is just a lookalike.

by Anonymousreply 32October 24, 2024 12:32 PM

Nothing. He has replaced Jesus for them. He is their new God who gives them permission to hate and be as cruel as they want, but pretend they are just and "saved", regardless.

There is nothing that will cause them to let that feeling of freedom go: the freedom to act on their base instincts towards those they hate and covet with no earthly (as of yet) or Heavenly repurcussions.

Those are the true "FREEDOMS" to which they nebulously refer.

So, don't depend on them waking up, ever. Your friends and family who are MAGA will never be who they used to be. This is who they are now. After he is gone, they will always be those people.

We have a little less than two weeks. Voting is happening now. Everything regular people can do anything to help with will be *over* by the end of the day on Tuesday, November 5. Make sure you can say that you did your part to fight against Trump, what he's done, and what he wants to do to America. Work hard and leave no regrets.

by Anonymousreply 33October 24, 2024 12:33 PM

Don't worry about the cultists. They are statistically incapable of electing him iIF IIF AND ONLY IF sane people vote and quit worrying about the nut jobs that still support dump
