General Discussion

Rising prices won't do it, not initially.

It starts with individual maga here and there losing jobs or businesses. Whispers will be heard in maga hallways. Eventually they won't just be hearing about friends of friends but their own friends and family will lose a job or two or shifts will be cut in half or 35 year old children will move back into parent's house.

At some point, for each maga, they will suddenly realize, "wait a minute, this is kind of bad". When enough of these occur, a tipping point will be reached and there will be a rush of talk among maga "hey, is this as bad for you as it is for my family?" And maga will move against tRump.

There will always be a 10-15% of the populace who think tRump is a saint and a martyr. But at some point even a majority of maga will turn against tRump. They may not admit it so much on opinion polls because they wouldn't want to be "recorded" in any way against tRump, but their actions will reveal distrust and disgust even while being in denial.

It might be mass maga calls to brokers "Get my 401k out of the market now!" Might be staying home from voting in Nov 2026. Might be panic buying of used pickup trucks. Some will even march in protest.

Democrats must be ready and address economic concerns while maintaining maximum pressure against the abduction and disappearance of people. Especially they must address the young males who even now feel left behind by the economy despite working hard.

Nobody knows when the tipping point occurs, but Democrats, liberals, and progressives must be ready to help power a Blue Storm Surge Nov 2026.
