Why are Donald Trump’s MAGA supporters abandoning him nationwide?
They're burning their MAGA hats and their Trump flags. Donald Trump supporters are abandoning him en masse as Donald Trump has betrayed everyone. Donald Trump's approval right now is the lowest in presidential history since the invention of polling. I want to share with you what we're seeing across the country. And I also want to share with you some of the high profile Trump supporters. supporters who are abandoning him in public. Let's talk about what's going down across the country. For example, you've got these three-time Trump voters who are farmers and ranchers. And here's what we're hearing, for example, from people in Iowa. Here play this clip.
So I travel a pretty large area here in our counties. Uh I'm seeing a lot of blue signs this election cycle that two years ago, four years ago, I was seeing zero. And this year it's just the opposite. I'm seeing zero red signs and all blue signs in areas that typically, you know, I wouldn't expect to see 'em in. And so to me that's You know, that's telling me something. Somebody's out there and they've changed their mind. Now we did also speak to farmers who said they feel disillusioned by what's going on in Washington, with one telling me that he feels his crop is being used as a negotiating chip in DC. I suppose.
Now, Donald Trump can try to say things like this. That's what he posted last night. We have the best financial numbers ever, and the fake news media refuses to report them. DJ Tino, you're just a fraud. You are a crook and a criminal and a felon. You're also a sexual abuser and a predator. The American people have figured you out. They should have a long time ago, but everybody knows. That you are a liar, you are a loser, and you are a fraud. Listen to what Sylvester Stallone just said in an interview he did with the New York Times. Now, he was a Trump supporter, and now he's out there saying, I'm against war, I'm against this war in Iran. Really, because you kind of aligned yourself at the hip with Donald Trump.
But here's what Sylvester Stallone says. Play this clip.
And now I realize all war is futile, it's stupid. It's a it's a a m mechanism to make tons of money for the war department and manufacturers and and these kids just going out there into a gristmill. being chopped up and no and then when they come back with no arms. Oh sorry, you're on your own. I hate it. I hate it and I I'm I'm bitterly opposed to it. But at one time the I was truly gone home.
What are farmers and rural voters saying about Trump’s policies?
Really gum ho. And I don't know if I was just um Trying to go against the current. You know, the in Hollywood there's a certain dynamic, as you know. But I I again I admit it was I think it's just naivete, really, because I I've read a lot, especially after First Blood. And Okay. This is brutal. This is horrible. There's no glory in war. Long. No. Just
When did you become anti war?
It's it's it's um look, if you're if you're under attack, of course you have to defend yourself. But I don't want to get into politics now, but all wars. Basically destroy both sides. I mean it it really creates this horrible History. And you know, a lot of people don't get over it. They just don't. It it it's grudges are held and You know. Continents are destr I mean, countries are destroyed and lines are redrawn. For what though? And
then we also learned this past week that Donna Ganger. The mother of Renee Good voted for Donald Trump. Yes. Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by the Trump Ice and Border Patrol Gestapo. Her mother was a Trump supporter. Okay. Here's what she said during a hearing that the Midas Touch Network covered. This is from the C-SPAN feed. Here, play this clip.
As a parent, it is our instinct and our honor to protect our children. Fast forward to today and his torture that as our mom and as our family we could not protect Renee. But no one can protect against others who are determined to disregard our country's constitutional rules and values. That is what happened on January seventh. Our family is a very American blend. We vote differently, but we love each other deeply. I'm a registered Republican.
