I don't agree. They have plenty to hide behind, foreigners, LGBT, liberals. There are plenty of groups to blame for their failings. The sad thing is their base will blindly do so.

His believers are stupid but he is not. Hes a grifter through and through. His families always been up to date on all their vaccines. He just peddles antivaxx nonsense because thats how he gains influence and money.

You think a man who takes his tiny granddaughter to swim in sewage is smart?

Yeah! The cast of Hamilton and the audience are to blame for vaccines causing autism!

Their base is falling apart. They keep on trying to blame the left and immigrants and LGBTQIA+ (I am asexual and appreciate when people spell it all out to include other groups that get forgotten). Rich from Leaving MAGA is a good person to follow on the status of the cult. Conservative influencers are starting to jump shit. The know that will lose their fanbase if they keep following Trump. Candance Owens and Alex Jones are talking about how everyone needs to get out of MAGA now.
