It happened. The office Trump supporter is PISSED

I've been seeing posts from people describing the Trump supporters in their life expressing anger over how Trump has started his second term. I just wanted to add to the pile. My office has one vocal Trump supporter. He claims he's an "independent" with no party affiliation, but you know the type. Despite being an independent he always seems to defend anything Trump does and chuckle to himself about any "Sleepy Joe" or "I did that" right wing meme bullshit.

When he tries to discuss politics I typically politely disengage. I don't have the mental energy to deal with it and I know I'll get too heated for the work place. Today he comes in and get's real close to me, his typically "I'm about to say some old man boomer nonsense" move he doesn't want other people to hear. To me surprise. "Can you believe this Musk guy with his hands in the treasury. I didn't vote for Musk. I don't trust him. He's a bandit". I'm in shock. I've never heard him say anything bad about any Republican decision in the years I've known him. And it kept going. "And these cabinet appointees. Alcoholics, drug addicts, rapists, woman beaters. It's disgusting."

I know there will be plenty of Trump supporters still holding on, doing mental gymnastics, will defend anything that happens, but it's clear that whatever almost magical hold Trump has over people does not extend to Musk and his cronies. Refuses to believe Trump is a rapist or a criminal, but everyone else around him is seen for what they are. In his words "If musk's touches my SS I'm going to go down there myself and drag him out".

It may be small, but every person who sees at least Musk for what he is is a win.

EDIT: LOOOVING all the comments calling me a bot or saying this didn't happen. Don't know what to tell you. It 100% happened. Don't believe me all you want, but get the fuck out of this sub while you do.
