Are the Trumpsters in your family/circle starting to peel away from the crazy? Please share details

Make America SANE again!

Every few months I post a diary inviting Kos readers to leave a comment describing how their Trunp-supporting crazy uncle/ageing parent/lunchroom buddy etc. has turned on the Donald — has suddenly (or gradually) realized that the Emporer is actually not wearing any clothes.

The first time I asked for stories like this there was little to report.

The second time a trickle of encouraging news from the Road to Damascus*.

Now I’m asking again at a time when the polling tells us that millions of Americans have abandoned this con man... and advocacy groups have sprung up to give public voice to this change of heart.

You are free to say anything you wish if you comment (within the confines of Kos rules) — but the purpose of this diary is to present a picture of who is changing their mind/heart, and why are they doing so.  I am not sharing the details of my stubbornly Trumpist sister because there is no value in telling that same old story.  We all know people like that.

If there is any value in this diary it will come from gathering together a series of anecdotes from Kos readers on what it takes for a formerly loyal (or even reluctant) Trumper to change their mind — and, hopefully, we’ll see some patterns or gain some insights into the conversion process. As tempting as it might be, peppering the comments with stories of people resistant to change dilutes the lesson offered by looking at people who have changed.

* Apologies to those unfamiliar with the New Testament.  The “Road to Damascus” refers to the sudden, blinding, dramatic conversion of a man’s core beliefs
