The Five Stages of MAGA Grief

[AceDesSpades]

The elites of The Democratic Party are the smartest people in the green room.

The only problem is, the show is The View, hosted by Oprah, and they're the only people in the room...

Hello? Any adults on the line listening? If so, please get your children by the collar and give them a good scolding. They are hogging the line with banal chatter like pre-teens discovering they have no one watching over them.

When is that MAGA grief supposed to kick in again? I haven't been happier ever since the election.

Only thing that could be better would be kicking out our current PM, which hopefully will be happening sooner rather than later.

Hopefully as soon as possible, MAGA can work through their collective anger to get to Depression and Acceptance. Then we'll see a lot of conservative posters wandering away or going silent, too beaten down and ashamed to keep up a losing fight.

The conservative voices on the PB have been getting quieter lately.

The triumphalism of inauguration week has faded into little whimpers. They’re finding it harder and harder to stand up for lame duck Trump.

Mishustin ain't that bad! He ain't even United Russia!

Can you imagine trying to zealously defend the corrupt / lawless bullshit going on with President Musk (and DonOld) right now???



Derpy is noticeably absent.

ineedhelp1??? Same.

BabyBoomer50??? Same.

Chloe “Chicongo” Tzang has basically given up.



The only ones keeping up the right wing gaslighting bullshit are the dregs of the PB. (and they / we know who and what they are.)

SAD!!!

The truth is we don't need to report the successes every day.

Donald Trump's followers have suffered a severe ego wound. Their entire world is crumbling around them. For most people, politics aren't central to their identity. They can walk away from a loss at the ballot box relatively unscathed. For example, I was disappointed when Hillary Clinton lost in 2016, but it didn't crush me. Being a Hillary supporter wasn't central to my identity.

Trump supporters are different. They can't just switch their allegiance to a different Republican. Supporting anyone else is unthinkable.

Donald Trump's felony convictions are forcing them into the five stages of grief. Mostly what we're seeing on the Politics Board right now is Denial and Bargaining: The news media is lying. There's some clever technicality that proves the trial was a sham. The Supreme Court will swoop in and save him. The dangerous point comes when they move on to Anger. In the real world we may see actual violence -- attempted assassinations of the authorities holding Trump to account. But here on the Politics board we'll just see a lot more acting out -- nihilistic posts about how everything is a joke or America is completely broken.

Hopefully as soon as possible, MAGA can work through their collective anger to get to Depression and Acceptance. Then we'll see a lot of conservative posters wandering away or going silent, too beaten down and ashamed to keep up a losing fight.

Finally, once they work through their grief over Trump, they can start posting again about real political issues.

what grief

The truth is that every success turns out to be shameful or even criminal when examined closely.

It was started when Kamala had the election all sewed up.

You can’t name a single success President Trump has had since he was inaugurated.

I would say a huge reduction in illegals entering the southern border. Exposing fraud, waste and abuse of tax payer funds, releasing JFK assassination files proving it was a government inside job.

None of those things happened.
