Are there any Trump supporters here who stopped supporting Trump after the Jan6th attempt to overturn the election?

I know there are many who are so mired in political tribalism that they make excuses for this act of terrorism but are there among those who supported Trump who found the actions of the Trump base on Jan 6th to be too much to handle?

My parents did, but they're convinced that the Jan 6th commission is excessive political theatre, so I guess that's like trump supporter lite

Well at least they realized that Trump had gone too far.

lol yeah that's fuckin wild.
But if i'm being charitable, maybe that means that many Trump supporters were horrified by those events and don't want to be associated with them.

@Pikachu if someone not Biden got the Dem vote, or a solid Thrid party person was there, id not have voted trump, then while i thought trump wasnt fucking up too bad first term, the moment he acted as he did on J6 i lost all faith in him, and he is once again not a good candidate

@Pikachu i mean the economy was on the mend, gas was down, jobs were on the rise, we were out of wars, and things were lookung up, then J6 happened and he showed his brat side and Biden rode the nuke down to vaporize the US

Interesting question. I’m curious to see the rationalizations that right whingers give about why they support him.

@justanothername "Right whingers". I love that.

I don't remember who now, but I spoke to a couple of people who stopped supporting him after that. I think they might have me blocked by now.

I'd hope there are at least a few people for whom Jan 6th was a bridge too far.
