as much as ever. I see a lot of them on Facebook too. The responses depend on the account posting the story. If it's Occupy Democrats or something like that, obviously there aren't many of them. Some other accounts have a lot. MN AG Keith Ellison's posts attract lots of MAGA comments. I'm not sure why you aren't seeing them, but they seem as loyal to Trump as ever. Even if they are only 36% of the population, it's a vocal 36%.

Yes, they are loyal to Trump but I can see them maybe being less likely to support other Republicans

I am. I'm on a topical site very far removed from politics. Until the last month.

Unfortunately, we are absolutely NOT at a turning point. We are not at one until we are.
