At the start of the post, the MAGA voter explained their last-minute decision to vote for Trump on Election Day…

They described feeling that Trump “got his ass beat” by Kamala Harris in the presidential debate, but did not like that the DNC was “open to big corporations and corporate donors.”

Their decision to vote for Trump also was inspired by Trump joining forces with RFK Jr., which they felt could improve nutrition policies. “Nutrition is a huge thing for me…”

The MAGA voter also assumed that Trump could end the Ukraine/Russia war due to his close relationship with Vladimir Putin. “I felt Trump would calm down the Ukraine/Russia conflict…to basically say ‘stop this shit’ and create a calmer world for us.”

Summary of text: The writer values nutrition and supports RFK joining Trump to tackle food issues. They believe Trump could calm Russia-Ukraine tensions and fix U.S. debts

But, according to the MAGA voter, everything went south with the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files. “Guy thinks we’re stupid. He campaigns on the Epstein files, realizes he’s on there and now is telling us to stop worrying about it.”

The White House has called the Wall Street Journal’s claim that Trump was notified by the Attorney General that his name was in the Epstein files a “fake news story.”

The MAGA voter also called out Trump’s attempts to get rid of the Department of Education. “I know he brought this up during his campaign, but I thought he’d be sensible enough to work across the aisle with Democrats on this matter, but this is insane.”

They also called out Trump’s “Big, Beautiful, Bill” that they described as “abhorrently terrible.”

As well as Trump’s tariffs increasing costs for young people. “Wtf is this guy thinking other countries will pay more. We’re the ones having to foot the cost.”

They took issue with Trump’s immigration and deportation policies call them “messed up,” because Trump has given ICE “free will to do whatever.”

And finally, the post ended with a promise to abandon Trump in the midterms. “I will absolutely be voting all blue come the midterms and will be voting for a sensible democrat next election.”

Statement expressing intent to vote Democrat in future elections

After reading the post, most people in the comments were not exactly applauding the MAGA voter for their switch-up.

“Wow, this is someone who even seems to have paid more attention than most, but also somehow discounted 99% of things Trump said he’d do. I just can’t with that level of cognitive dissonance,” one user said.

“‘She didn’t have any ideas that I considered fresh and new, so I figured I may as well vote for the guy who babbled utter nonsense instead,'” another user wrote sarcastically, referencing the voter’s comments on the presidential debate.

“This sounds like a lot of people in my family’s rationale for voting Trump, who should have had enough common sense to think things through. They’ll never admit they’re wrong and vote democrat though. At least this person realized they were wrong, albeit way too late,” this user wrote.

“They really give him too much credit thinking these pie in the sky thoughts that’d he abolish everything he said he would, and replace it all with something way better, which he never had a plan to do.”
