Afraid you’re correct.
Many of the brighter lights at FR were either banished or left when even constructive criticism of Trump was not tolerated.
Labeled a “Never Trumper”, you could no longer post.
Irrespective of many constructive posts, not to mention actively working on the Trump campaign.....
I think he's proven both those falsehoods to be what they were.
Nowadays, I try to stick to only bashing Trump Eeyores with a noticeable NeverTrumper history in the primaries.
Personal disclaimer: My main support of Trump was my hope that he would destroy the Media Death Star. I'm a happy guy these days. 😀
