Since we are now seeing "data expert"s examine how the election could have been stolen, here is a suggestion:
Save some time and examine how the MAGA slopfluencers spent more than a year attacking its own base, including a large independent and younger demographic.
They browbeat the hell out of them, called them names, told them they were not needed, attacked their accounts, and when possible their livelihoods outside of social media.
Those attacks came from within the Trump administration, including Trump himself. The grift crew then profited by parroting the message and amplifying it.
They used messaging that was wholly unserious. They discounted and gaslit people over real economic struggles. They used data that was cherry-picked and shut down criticism. They told everyone they were winning when they were hurting. They went back on campaign promises and stopped making meaningful progress on a great start to the immigration issue. They didn't address healthcare. They blamed everything on Democrats.
NGOs and Democrats didn't even need to outspend or craft elaborate schemes. MAGA destroyed itself from within.
When people are told their support isn't needed, they take it seriously. But sure, it's the NGO messaging.
