@quinn as with all of these things, it will be the last straw for like 1% of his supporters, who will use it as a permission structure to get out of a movement they already wanted to get out of. his “base” are definitionally the ones who can maintain the cognitive dissonance and thus won’t be convinced, so I voted “no”. but the base may shrink a tiny bit.
