I agree with you, and I think both approaches to reach maga are valid. Asking people to think about the lies is just as important as asking them to ignore the words and look at the actions. Both could change hearts and minds.

In the end, i suspect a lot of maga is just a popularity contest. as soon as cracks start appearing, it will be a race to jump ship. Eventually, "everyone will have always been agaisnt this", just like in post hitler germany.

It our job to keep the pressure on. give them no rest. never let them repair the cracks in the hull.
