They are the brainchild of Rich Logis, himself a former Trumper, whose \u201cLeaving MAGA\u201d non-profit has plans to erect several more billboards, even as it continues to receive a record number of inquiries.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/cityflowjournal.com\/?p=667\">Must data centers be so ugly?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>He has landed on fertile territory. Dismay over the Iran war and the Epstein Files \u2014 and a sluggish economy \u2014 mean that just 15% of Americans now \u201cstrongly approve\u201d of the Commander in Chief. Yet despite the President\u2019s record low approval ratings, a solid majority of Republicans, and an even  of MAGA Republicans, remain onside. In practice, that can make leaving the movement as painful as departing an actual church, with friendships ruined and communities torn apart. As Americans digest this week\u2019s primaries, however, and the midterms edge closer, the pain of separation could offer useful lessons for Republicans and Democrats alike.<\/p>\n<p>Steven Francisci knows the struggles of leaving MAGA better than most. A former naval cook, he\u2019d voted for Trump three times over. But then, last November, the Virginia resident decided to back Abigail Spanberger, a Democrat, in the Old Dominion\u2019s gubernatorial race. Having made his home in Chesapeake, a Republican stronghold where nearly all his neighbors are Trump supporters, Francisci knew this decision would go down poorly. \u201cI didn\u2019t want them to treat me differently,\u201d he tells me. \u201cI didn\u2019t want them thinking \u2018oh Steve, you\u2019re not one of those nuts are you?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After deliberating for a day or two, Francisci mustered the courage to plant an \u201cAbigail Spanberger for Governor\u201d sign on his front lawn. Spanberger duly won \u2014 but, within 24 hours, Francisci sensed something had changed. Neighbors who once asked after his kids became more distant, and conversations grew stilted. \u201cBefore I chatted with my friends and neighbors the whole time,\u201d Francisci recalls. \u201cBut after that election, it was silent. I felt ashamed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This trauma can partly be understood by the depth of Francisci\u2019s former loyalties. Until last year, he stood firmly on the Right, at times venturing into more extreme corners, consuming white nationalist content that included conspiracies about Barack Obama\u2019s citizenship. As an early champion of \u201cbirtherism\u201d, Trump gave these views a national platform, turning Francisci into an early convert. A fellow New Yorker by birth, he was also drawn to the businessman\u2019s earthy, confrontational style.<\/p>\n<p>After a series of personal setbacks \u2014 the breakdown of his marriage and a motorbike accident that left him on disability benefits \u2014 MAGA became, in effect, Francisci\u2019s new community. \u201cI felt like I was now part of something bigger than myself,\u201d he explains. \u201cI was part of a movement that was trying to make America better. There was a strong sense of belonging, shared language and community, where I felt a connection with people who shared similar beliefs and perspectives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Francisci\u2019s evangelical church, politics and religion regularly converged. Before and after service, the topic of conversation almost always turned to Trump, with congregants asking whether he was touched by the divine. \u201cWe would just start talking about politics and what we saw on Fox News,\u201d Francisci says. \u201cPeople really felt Trump was the chosen one. We all did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Francisci didn\u2019t see the irony of talking about the chosen one in a house of God. He was so immersed in Trump lore that he genuinely believed that the President was the savior; he was the only one untouched by the stench of corruption that wafted through DC. He really was going to drain the swamp. And yet, by the 2024 election, Francisci\u2019s feelings had started to shift. There was no grand epiphany: rather, Trump\u2019s claims about a stolen election, and his conduct on January 6, slowly began to gnaw at him. In the end, he put up that Spanberger sign, losing friends and family as he went.<\/p>\n<p>Francisci\u2019s journey \u2014 from diehard to apostate \u2014 can be spotted elsewhere too. In the space of a decade, Carter Brown went from being a QANON-supporting Trumper to leaving the movement altogether. Like with Francisci, the impact was swift and brutal. The day after she broke with Trump, the Georgia native describes feeling like she was in <em>The<\/em> <em>Truman Show<\/em>. She struggled to get out of bed each morning and couldn\u2019t keep to any kind of normal routine around the house. \u201cI was experiencing a complete identity collapse,\u201d she says. \u201cI didn\u2019t know what was going to happen to my marriage. I didn\u2019t know what was going to happen to the relationship with my friends, with my family.\u201d Though Brown\u2019s marriage ultimately endured, she says the last few years have been \u201cextremely difficult\u201d, especially as she\u2019s lost several friends. Online, they questioned her, harassed her, even blocked her. \u201cIt was,\u201d Brown says, \u201ca complete ego death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, these are extreme cases. But they do reflect a wider truth about the strength of MAGA identity. It functions as a worldview, a belief system, and a community, all wrapped up into one. I caught a glimpse of this while covering a Trump rally in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, in 2024. After Trump finished speaking, I stopped at a nearby bar, where almost everyone was wearing MAGA hats, shirts, and assorted pieces of anti-Biden regalia. I was immediately struck by the camaraderie in the room; bikers played pool with bricklayers, locals bought drinks for out-of-towners, and bartenders shared cigarettes with regulars. Whether they knew each other or not, a baseline of trust had already been established.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I supported Trump, there was this kind of camaraderie that you don\u2019t have on the Left,\u201d John, who spoke to <em>UnHerd<\/em> using a pseudonym, tells me. \u201cWe had this bunker mentality where it was us against everyone else because that was the counter-culture during the early 2020s.\u201d John, who was living in Orlando, Florida at the time, said he was drawn to Trump\u2019s outsider appeal, believing that he would disrupt the uniparty consensus. \u201cUntil Trump,\u201d he explains, \u201cit just felt like every single politician sounded basically the same. It was just whether you were waving a blue or red flag. At the end of the day, they were still bombing, corruption was everywhere, and they were beholden to special interests.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/cityflowjournal.com\/?p=665\">The meaning of Abdul El-Sayed\u2019s triumph<\/a><\/p>\n<p>John later realized that Trump was no different, though he still enjoyed the fellowship that came with the movement. He tells me about the story of when his boss caught him watching a Stephen Crowder podcast at work, and summoned him to his office. \u201cI thought \u2018oh fuck, this isn\u2019t good\u2019\u201d. Yet rather than confronting him, John\u2019s boss revealed himself as a Crowder fan too. \u201cFrom that point on, we always \u2014 under wraps \u2014 had each other\u2019s back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As recently as, say, 1996, changing political allegiances was as anodyne as switching supermarkets. But as the country has become more polarized, with millions of Americans seeing their political rivals not just as wrong but as immoral, the social cost of abandoning one\u2019s tribe has grown ever steeper. That cost is especially acute on the Right, where most Republicans have spent over a decade rallying around a single figure, with their loyalty hardened by Russiagate, two impeachments, multiple criminal indictments and a pair of assassination attempts.<\/p>\n<p>Does that make MAGA, as many on the Left argue, a cult? When literal gold statues of the movement\u2019s leader are being erected, there are certainly some parallels. But it is also true that MAGA support for the President is not monolithic, as increasingly vocal criticisms from influential figures within the broader Right-leaning media ecosystem \u2014 including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly and Shawn Ryan \u2014 have shown.<\/p>\n<p>Just yesterday, Carlson floated the idea of a \u201cnew path forward\u201d, after claiming that MAGA had been \u201cbetrayed\u201d. He was pictured alongside other exiles, including Marjorie Taylor Greene, Joe Kent and Thomas Massie, all of whom appear to be jockeying for the MAGA throne once Trump departs.<\/p>\n<p>However, the very source of MAGA\u2019s strength could also be the cause of its undoing. As the primary defeats of Massie, Bill Cassidy and John Cornyn vividly demonstrate, today\u2019s Republican party still belongs to Trump. The President does not tolerate dissent, and anyone who challenges him is swatted away by the base. But if MAGA\u2019s fate is so closely entwined with the one man, it has little chance of outliving him. For the fact remains: Trump made MAGA, led MAGA, and to a significant extent, <em>is<\/em> MAGA. This is something the President himself seems to recognize. Earlier this year, when asked whether his decision to abduct Venezuela leader Nicol\u00e1s Maduro was a betrayal of his \u201cAmerica First\u201d campaign promises, Trump responded: \u201cMAGA loves what I\u2019m doing. MAGA loves everything I do. MAGA is me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps polarization is now so entrenched in America that MAGA voters will line up behind any candidate in the Republican column. But it is difficult to imagine a President Vance or Carlson commanding the same level of loyalty among their followers. How would Republicans react, for instance, if Vance said, as Trump did, that he did not think \u201ceven a little bit\u201d about Americans\u2019 financial situation on the eve of the midterms?<\/p>\n<p>Trump is a <em>sui generis<\/em> figure, and any candidate trying to emulate him risks looking like a pale imitation. In some ways, this could benefit the Republican Party. It may force the next generation of leaders to articulate a more coherent political vision, one rooted in MAGA\u2019s original principles: avoiding foreign wars, draining the swamp and reviving America\u2019s industrial heartlands. It may also compel the party to build a broader and more durable coalition, one held together by ideas and interests rather than loyalty to a single man.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats, for their part, can learn from this too. Formerly core constituencies of the party \u2014 working-class voters, African Americans, Hispanics \u2014 have drifted Right, while Democrats have struggled to find a message that resonates beyond their activist base. The botched release of the DNC\u2019s report into the 2024 election shows that this is still a party riven by internal divisions, as evidenced by the divisive primaries in Maine and Michigan. Until it can find a candidate who can appeal to a broader cross-section of voters in 2028, it will continue to flounder.<\/p>\n<p>Back in Chesapeake, life is easier for Francisci now. Since leaving MAGA \u2014 and stepping away from his church at the same time \u2014 he has rebuilt his social network, made new friends, and reconnected with family members. He now tries to support others who are thinking about leaving the movement, though he is careful not to proselytize, lest he take on the role of the evangelist once more. \u201cI walked away from Trump and I walked away from Christianity,\u201d he says. \u201cNo more conversions for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/cityflowjournal.com\/?p=663\">Can Cambridge weather the Arday storm?<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cHaving doubts?\u201d the billboards ask. \u201cYou are not alone\u201d.
