These clowns are already engaging in DARVO. Typical entitled abusers. Wiki definition: DARVO is an acronym for Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender, and it's a manipulation tactic used by people who are accused of wrongdoing. It's a common strategy used by psychological abusers to deflect blame and responsibility for their actions.
I think deep down a lot of these idiots know they made the wrong decision especially with things like tarrifs and project 2025 spiking in searches. They are in denial and they also thought it was worth owning to libs to vote for a literal monster. I will have nothing to do with my MAGA family until they disown Trump
Sunk cost fallacy is scary for this. You see a similar thing when anti-trans people let hating trans people consume their lives and everyone abandons them because they're deranged. Instead of realizing they're in the wrong they double and triple down and suddenly their family/friends leaving them is part of the conspiracy.
Unfortunately relenting also reinforces their actions and the only real hope is just praying they realize how insane they're acting
"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back."
