Yeah, I know it's Politico, but I haven't seen it reported anywhere else. Ran across the article this morning on Citizen Free Press.

This was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I am done with Trump. Time for someone else to jump in front of the MAGA parade and lead us out of the immoral morass that America has become.

If you expect God to somehow bless America through Trump's leadership, stand by to be deeply disappointed.

I’m going to wait to see if this is true. If it is, it’s disappointing, but in general Trump has been pretty good on these issues. He discontinued Trans in the military and has been a strong critic of men in women’s sports.

Hey, President Trump. They can’t create their own kids. They have to steal ours.

I voted for Trump twice, mostly because the alternative was so bad. I don’t know if I will vote for him a third time, regardless of the alternative. There are limits as to how far one will bend toward the opposition.

I know what you mean. I followed his record prior to 2016…. But this was the reason I could not pull the lever.
He was is and will be a leftist. I was right. Under his prez we got lockdowns, travel restrictions, mail in ballots, Syrians, a bumpstock ban… endless covid cash to do nothing for businesses and individuals.
We lost more freedom under his leadership than any prez I can recall. His record is anti small government, anti 2A, anti individual liberty. My family was very upset, until they suffered under his leadership.
For a booming economy, he gave the dems perpetual power with mail in ballots.
He let fauci and Pell i lead him by the nose.
This fake war they have on him is funny to me. He gave them More than they could ever hope for.
He is not one of us, but some folks would give him their last round, last weapon and call it 4d chess.
I saw the change here as well… so I suspect the real zealots in the early days were dem operatives. I even stopped FR for a year because the ad hominem attacks we rarely saw before, were dominant. No rational debate, as before, just DU level hateful attacks.
His foreign policy appears to have been much better than how he treated us..
I often wonder how he and his friends Hillary and the Lincoln loggers laugh at the lock her up.. which was probably started by a dem plant in the first place. /rant :)

Looks like we were double baited with trading cards and a free speech announcement on Thursday ahead of this event.

My Trump support meter will go way down if this is true.

Other than being pro life, Trump has never been a social conservative. He and his friend Giuliani have a long history of supporting gay rights and as a supporter of liberty I stand with Trump.

For those who are first and foremost economic conservatives or libertarians, this may not be a big deal. But for those who are first and foremost social conservatives, this is a big deal. And social conservatives were oftentimes his biggest source of support. It will cost him votes. Bigly.

That Trump would support gay rights should come as no surprise to anyone who’s actually been paying attention to Trump.

people keep confusing Trump and MAGA for conservative Republicanism..

Neither the Right...nor the Left -without electoral fraud- can win elections across the country. Most Americans are just not that radical. Trump knows this better than anyone else

Its that simple
