Trump Supporters Don't Deserve Forgiveness - DL Hughley [View all]

https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/celebrity/dl-hughley-says-former-donald-trump-supporters-dont-deserve-forgiveness/ar-AA1KpWDQ?ocid=BingNewsSerp

He's absolutely right.
Die-hard MAGA fans who’ve jumped ship on President Donald Trump should reap what they sowed -- no forgiveness, says D.L. Hughley.

The comedian joined us Tuesday on "TMZ Live," saying the only reason some folks turn anti-Trump is because he caused something bad to happen to them or someone close -- not because bad things have been happening to others all along during his 2 times in office ... which, in his book, makes these former Trumpers selfish.

D.L. pops off in our video, brushing off Charles’ question about forgiveness in politics and saying the whole Republican game now is built on loyalty -- and they ride or die with it
.

Reasons in TMZ Video:
1. Their inherent selfishness.

2. You didn't care who your vote hurt as long as it was Black and brown people are hurt and all the more better for it if it hurt black and brown people.

3. You helped Trump attack Black Cities with Black Mayors.

4. You helped Trump round up Brown people.

5. Three bites of the apple, they voted for him the first time, saw him raise an insurrection, then voted for him again.

It was deliberate.

Why should I trust you?
