Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Trump is to Taylor Swift as MAGA is to swifties.
These are just fans who are upset the administration is torturing their families. They're not gong to stop being fans. Best case scenario is one of his fans does the John Lennon thing to him.
Did you mean, "Trump is to MAGA, as Taylor Swift is to swifties"?
That is, the MAGA cult around Trump is comparable to the fan-cult around Taylor Swift? (Neither of which can accept imperfections in their idol?)
The way it was originally written compares Trump and Swift to each other (and MAGA and swifties to each other), which doesn't make much sense. But from the context it's clear you're comparing the nature of their fans. It follows more to switch a few words around.
Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to make sense of things that don't add up with my tired, stressed, autistic brain.
Thank you for this, thought I was going crazy because it didn't make sense.
