"Lived addicted to fear and anger". The group helping former Donald Trump supporters leave MAGA

CNN Portugal2 September 2026 at 08:00

Leaving MAGA is an organization created by former supporters of American President Donald Trump that has already brought together thousands of people distancing themselves from the MAGA movement. The group promotes support groups, in-person meetings, and specific sessions for family members of those who remain connected to the movement.

The process of leaving the movement can mean losing relationships, a community, and part of one's own identity. A former supporter described the experience as losing "a second family that came before my own," evidencing the depth of the emotional and social bond that many members develop with the group.

The organization recognizes that leaving MAGA goes beyond a simple political change, representing a complex personal transition that involves issues of belonging and identification with a group.
