I'm going to give props to Meidas Touch. They are now platforming Leaving MAGA

Yes they are click baity. Whether we like it or not, this is how many people absorb news and information. They are easily enticed by click bait.
Kudos to them for platforming Leaving MAGA.

I usually don't give a damn about Ex- MAGATs, this guy's testimony though, was powerful.

1. Effectiveness of Leaving MAGA?

Does anyone have any actual data about how effective Leaving MAGA is?

The stories and vlogs are nice, but hard data would be more informative. How many individuals have have actually left MAGA because of Leaving MAGA? And do those individuals drift back to MAGA - like many J6ers did after they swore never to follow Trump again - or do they stay away?

To Leaving MAGA's credit, it has posted its tax returns on its website. So if it can also provide some sort of quantifiable data about its successes, a rough "cost per success" metric could be calculated. That kind of info would be valuable - it would help potential donors figure out whether Leaving MAGA is worth giving to, or whether contributing to other anti-Trump efforts would be a better use of their funds.

I sincerely hope that Leaving MAGA is successful. But cultists are notoriously difficult to rescue from themselves, so I am skeptical...
