empathy /ĕm′pə-thē/ noun The ability to identify with or understand another's situation or feelings BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO YOU.

Trump in his first administration lied over 3,000 times and yet you are suprised he lied to you? The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior.

You can't fix dumb.

But we can’t wait for every single MAGA to get stopped by border patrol, there needs to be another way

We welcome all Fooled MAGA back! We have all been played a fool! Once you realize it you fix it!

They can eat shiiit

it's so very republican to hate on others until it happens to them personally. Being devoid of empathy is the quintessential, most fundamental republican trait

They knew who and what he was. He was a liar and a felon when they voted for him. But as usual with a lot of MAGA voters they just didn't care...until it affected them.

Sometimes you have to become “an example” to understand reality. 🤦‍♂️

No sympathy

And these are the types of people Democrats need to embrace because we are a big tent party and all hands on motherfucking deck. I don't want to hear shit like well they deserve it or fafo. Welcome them in and let's fight this together.

He didn't lie to them. If ever a wanna be dictator was up front and open with the voters, it was Trump. No. It's the old saga of : but I didn't think he meant me ! That's their gripe. THEM not ME.

Don't just admit it. Please get on the phone or e-mail and tell your reps in D.C. what you think about ICE/mass deportations. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com

Too little, too late.

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A DEMAGOGUE CON MAN GRIFTER SWOONS U TO BELIEVE THEM EVEN THOUGH DEEP IN YOUR HEART YOU KNOW MAYBE THIS ISN'T RIGHT, MAYBE. THIS IS WHAT FASCISTS DO THEY GOBSMACK U HOODWINK U AND SWOON U TO BELIEVE THEM AND NOT THE OPPOSITION. WE TRIED TELLING YOU NOW HERE WE ARE. THANKS.

Thanks for this. Powerful!

I’m sorry but my god, Trump lies about everything. What made them think they would be safe and that he wasn’t lying to them. This explains why trump got elected. He said he ‘loves the undereducated’ because the undereducated are so easy to dupe and they were.

Welcome to them! So glad they see through some of the delusion, but oddly it doesn't seem he would've voted Kamala even in retrospect. Why? What were his options? There's a question of why people fall for Trump's lies when his character is well known. As 'Christians' shouldn't that have mattered?

One by One by One -- MAGGOTS come to the REALITY that THEY have TOTALLY been SCREWED by Trump‼️...ONLY 76.9 Million left to go‼️🤪

Fuk them. They were fine and went along until it affected them. 🤨

I wish they would've realized this before voting for him. That being said, we are here now and wishing isn't going to do shit. We need to be united if we want to save our democracy, but we also need them to realize we are here because of them. They need to be the loudest voices against this regime.

FAFO

Let's hope and encourage more former MAGAs to voice their concerns. Kinda like they just woke up from a nightmare only to discover that it is the new reality.

They only cared after it happened to them. They are not good people. F'em.

Well. I little late I’d say. 🤨 How many million people feel that way? The Democratic party has to turn that into a Blue Tsunami! All the Red Tide Scum needs to be washed away.

I tend to consider stupidity as a sin.

Calling him Comrade. Funny. (If it wasn’t so serious)

No sympathy here. Everyone in the world, literally, told them.

George is obviously very intelligent and thoughtful. We are all more vulnerable than we think to propaganda. I hope every single person that voted for Trump doesn't have to go through something so intense to be deprogrammed.

They would never have switched sides if they weren't personally targeted. MAGA perceives whoever Trump targets as the 𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 to be demonized.

No. They don’t get an award. They should spend all finances on helping get the people they sent to concentration camps out. That’s your life’s mission or FO.

Many of these voters need an off ramp. Their identity is tied to their support of Trump. Dems could capture some of these votes by pointing out that yes, they were repeatedly lied to. They were promised one thing and delivered nothing but pain. Remember those lies on Election Day. Channel the anger.

Until it happens to you Right? Then you care

We should embrace anyone who wants to join the movement to elect Democrats

What will happen if they decide to go after Europeans? It won’t just be brown or dark skinned citizens caught up in the sweeps. Then what, MAGA? You’re next. That’s what.

They are still idiots because the writing was clearly on the wall. They just chose to ignore it.

I salute their courage and honesty. thee schadenfraude and blame in comments is pointless. They're good people.

Always torn between being happy someone can admit they were wrong, being shocked this wasn't obvious, and angry that people they won't see this until they are personally threatened.

They really weren't paying ANY attention. I don't get this MAGA Crowd. Are the REALLY THAT dumb?

Oh they will vote for him again if possible because they are ignorant.

Then they need to be humble in the face of my disgust. They can shove it And they should say yes- I deserve that And after all of it- they still helped destroy the country Fuck them Vote out all incumbents

I turned it off after he went all "Are you telling me Kamala was better". Yes, I am telling you that Kamala was better. I mean, OK, welcome back but it's only temporary. This dude will vote Repub again in 2028, guaranteed.

I have no sympathy for this BS. You turned your back on your own people to begin with. FOH. #Releasethefiles

I agree. Adam, I'm a lifelong Democrat but the country needs your voice.

MAGA Ade

Agree, OK I will cut some slack for voting Trump in 2016, but not a second time.

It's all about me. Zero fuks given til affects me.

Very valid comment.

We’ll consider their faces slapped… and the rest of America F*CKED!

Slow learners.

Many Americans FAFO AND MANY MORE ARE COMING

I don’t get why Latino babies in cages didn’t convince them the first time, but better late than never?

They didn't listen to trump's own words. They expected it to happen to brown people, not them! Regret for their racism now?

Nailed it!

The dentist appointment people! Pressing play right now

We know why TX Latinos voted for trump. It wasn’t groceries. They didn’t want migrants getting legal status unless it was thru the same arduous legal process they did. It was pure spite. And we warned them ICE would racially profile Latinos/deport citizens. They got what they voted for.

That's all fine and good, but just how stupid are George and Esmeralda Doilez that they couldn't recognize all of this about eight years ago, when it was already plain as day?

The fundamental lesson here has not yet been learned.

So, they started caring only when it affected them?

So you’re a raging racist on Sunday but you’re all good now on Monday. I don’t buy it 🤷🏼‍♂️

I have no sympathy for them but glad they finally came to their senses. Did they even bother and care to do some research on Harris, watch her debate Trump, read her platform on her website, etc.? Did they know what Project 2025 will do? The truth is out there. They opened the door to fascism.

Oh Well!! They Voted for HIM!!!!!!

He didn't lie to them. He told us all exactly who is is and what his intentions were. Those people chose to ignore him until it affected them. Zero sympathy for these people.

Classic: didn’t care until it happened to them. Now it’s urgent. Cool.

It's a nice anecdote. But at the point we have Kavanaugh Stopped every Trump voter, we will be so far down Niemöller's poem that they'll already have come for us. His voters are 100% ethos and 0% logos or pathos. It's a cult and he is their authority. They need deprogramming.

The problem seems to be two-fold, they were listening to the wrong people and not paying attention to everything else to understand that they were being lied to.

He ran on border control. How could they be surprised ?

He didn't lie to them. They just thought he was going to hurt other people and not them. They are just mad that the fire burned them too. Fuck em.

It’s a good thing they see the light but once again they wereall in when they thought that only others would suffer

This is the BEST!!! 😆 🤣 😂

Tots and Pears!

Selfishness creates many horrors.

Amazing the number of people who ignored his 4 years of lies the first time.

Hope they will be able to persuade others who have not yet come face to face with that Truth.

Please stop sane washing these stupid racists. They fucked around, now they found out. Let’s call it what it is.

@leavingmaga.bsky.social

Hope to hear more of this.

It is hard to be sympathetic

Little late to the party. Sorry you got what you voted for. I’m tired of hearing from people who regret their vote. Your regret isn’t helping anything. Get into the damn fight!!!

Adam, you are wrong. Obama deported more people than Trump ever did so you are wrong to say Democrats 'ignore the border issue.' I mean WTF man?

Thank you for this. I vehemently disagree that Kamala would not have been better. But it helps to hear other’s perspectives.

MAGA gonna MAGA: I voted for this, but I didn’t vote for this to happen to me.

I can’t STAND people who don’t have the morals, principles or ethics to know right from wrong and to not see evil for what it is UNTIL IT AFFECTS THEM! If you’re speaking out about any wrong you should do so BECAUSE IT IS WRONG, not simply because that WRONG affects YOU!

So they are capable of learning?

How one can sit by and watch January 6 happen and THEN still vote for the traitor who attempted to perpetrate a coup doesn't compute in my brain. So, they are regretful ONLY because this specific incident happened to THEM. Just like any supposedly ex-magat, until it happens to THEM, they don't care.

I remember the "Mass Deportations Now!" signs at the RNC. Did they really believe he was only going to deport criminals? There aren't that many that there could be mass deportations! And we warned innocent people would be swept up!

Where are their red hats?? I have noticed that the Maga complainers don't wear the red hat. Put that hat back on while you're complaining. They know exactly what they did and now want to hide behind their tears.

And it takes rectitude to inform yourself before you vote.

I’ve seen plenty of “I was lied to” stories popping up. Unless their story includes recognition that ALL the information about what’s happening now was available to them, but they CHOSE to believe the lies, coupled with a commitment to broaden their media and information sources, it’s all bullshit.

I’ve been mad at maga & the ones that got out too. Screw them all, you should’ve known,etc. But the fact is we need each other now. The more who speak against this regime the better. We esp. need people like Esmeralda & George cuz they have a better chance of reaching maga. We’ve all made mistakes.

I find it astounding that anyone who has paid the slightest attention were unaware the orange blob wasn't a racist and hates anyone with a Hispanic bone in their body. Here's some paper towels he'll throw at for you to mop up those tears.

They appear to be in "FO" stage after basking in the "FA" activity. Let me know when they actually vote for American democracy and then I'll have *some* compassion. Otherwise they're just enjoying their 15 minutes. Fuck em.

He was thoughtful and intelligent and learned from his experience. Not only should he continue to share it, but maybe he should look to be a community leader. Maybe he should think about running for local office.

Except it didn’t take very much cognitive ability to realize he was fucking lying to you, and thats all he has done is lie his entire fucking life, so no you didn’t get lied to you got what you voted for and didn’t realize it was gonna be for you also

Welcome to the resistance

They’re gonna wake up, some of them. But for others ,they could be starving to death and still follow the false Prophet , The Shitler… #Inflation #Starvation #TheGOP

It's too bad Trump kept it totally secret he was going to do something to immigrants, then these people might not have voted for him. 🙄

Summary: “I only care if bad things happen to ME!”

Didn’t see them whining when Biden was in office. It’s only when the orange hippo came back. Don’t feel sorry for them at all. They are getting the day they voted for.

I wish people would stop giving them an outlet to voice their grievances. If they aren't happy with what is happening to them because of the choice they made, make a better choice next time, if you're still in the country. Same goes for the farmers.

Love this!!! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

Lesson #1, don’t vote for convicted fucking felons, especially when you know they’re a convicted fucking felon!!! Class dismissed.

It's only a problem once it happens to them.

imPortant PSA: These #leopardsatemyface shirts still available: bsky.app/profile/meat...

Spot on! Joe.

I get your frustration and anger. I feel it too. It makes sense. But please learn compassion, particularly for those who are lost. They're on a journey. This is a step. It's hard for humans to admit we're wrong, particularly when our choices hurt ourselves and or those we love or care about.

I do think even no vote was a vote for Trump. That was the hardest part of listening to this for me.

Everyone needs to own their mistakes. The question is, will the country survive the next three years without losing its democracy?

This was not a bad choice made by millions of Americans, it was calculated. The truth is White Christian Nationalists, fascists and racists, voting together, which combined make a deadly combination.

They didn’t know they were brown?

honestly? I don't know if you're being helpful or otherwise. Help a girl out!
