hey everybody rich coming to you here at leavingmaga
.org with the midas touch network great to be
back with you guys here i know i've been off
for a little bit with a break we've been really
busy thankfully with leaving maga you know the
uh president recently declared liberation day
and i want to tell all of you that every day
is liberation day for me and for all of us who
left maga for me my date of liberation was August
30th, 2022. So with all of the recent news with
the elections in Florida where I am and in Wisconsin,
I just want to preface with saying that I am
registered to vote, but I am not registered with
any party. And in the zero -sum game of politics,
it's true, a loss is still a loss and there are
no moral victories, but slow and steady does
win the race. The good news here in Florida is
that Democrats did shrink the electoral gaps
in the two elections, and Democrats turned out
successfully and victoriously in the Wisconsin
Supreme Court race. And I do think that it's
a sign of something that is happening now, and
I think it's bigger than just one race. And leaving
MAGA is at the forefront of the MAGA resistance.
this makes sense right if you really think about
it who better to lead the resistance than those
who are in the mega community and left and i
think something is in the air right now something
is happening and i think that something is regret
and i think it's regret amongst those who voted
for trump and support the mega movement and disapproval
of the president is rising especially on the
economy And don't forget, in addition to the
Florida and Wisconsin races, there was a Pennsylvania
state Senate seat recently that flipped blue
for the first time in 136 years. So you're talking
almost a century and a half there with a seat
that went from red to blue and has not been Democratic
since the late 1800s. So this is not a normal
shift in party politics. I think a growing number
of Trump supporters are. in open revolt against
the president elon musk as evidenced by the latest
report of tesla sales being down double digits
you know firing and then aiming is no way to
run a country and let's also give a shout out
to new jersey senator corey booker for breaking
strom thurman's record for longest ever senate
speech and for those of you don't know Thurmond
was, Thurmond, excuse me, was a noted segregationist.
We also continue to see more and more reports
of the Trump regretful. Did you guys see this
story about Jennifer Pigott? She's a self -described
MAGA junkie from West Virginia. Here's a clip
we have for you, a little bit about her story.
If you could say anything to President Trump
now, what would you say? I expected better. from
you. I really did. I expected that you would
do what was right and cut waste and fraud and
all of those things that you promised us before
we elected you in office. But you're not doing
that. You're creating a disaster. And I don't
know what America is going to look like if this
continues. Did you ever think that your job would
be impacted in a Trump administration? No, absolutely
not. Jennifer Piggott was abruptly fired from
her job at the Treasury Department's Bureau of
Fiscal Service here in Parkersburg, West Virginia,
along with 124 other probationary employees.
She voted for Donald Trump and thought her government
job would be safe. To cut the knees out of the
working class Americans just didn't make, it
doesn't make sense to me. You know, it's what's
the checking account look like, babe? We went
through our list of items on our budget and said,
what can we get rid of? And we've gotten rid
of all of those things, including cable. I had
my last review on the 31st of January, and I
had the highest rating that you can get on a
review, less than 21 days before I was terminated
for my performance. On top of losing her job,
Jennifer is facing backlash from both Democrats
and Republicans for speaking out. she's received
death threats and more our home's been egged
you know they've hacked my instagram and posted
horrible things about my deceased mother yeah
so you guys are hearing from jennifer what we're
hearing a lot in these reports about people who
are who are trump voters and they're they're
going public and they're saying this is not what
i expected i didn't think i'd be affected and
as i've said in prior might as touch videos and
appearances with you guys i know the temptation
is to say i told you so but i implore you to
resist the temptation to say that because it
is going to be more harmful than helpful and
we we want to give people we want people to feel
comfortable to leave maga without judgment and
ostracization and i know that we want to see
more and more testimonials of of those who left
and yes we should feel a sense of urgency but
we should also remember that it takes time for
someone to leave maga it took me an entire year
because i was walking away from my second family
in the mega community and also because i painfully
but liberatingly no pun intended realized that
most of what i had believed for years had been
incorrect and i concluded that I had allowed
myself to be duped into believing one falsehood
after another. And it was frightening for me
not having anywhere to go after leaving. But
that's why I founded Leaving MAGA, as a new community
to counter the MAGA community and a support group
and an exit ramp for those who leave. And in
addition to those who leave, those who are having
doubts as well as friends and family. of those
who remain in the thrall of MAGA. And we recently
discussed this in a video story that USA Today
did about leaving MAGA. So be sure to subscribe
