‘I Bought Trump’s Lies’: 3-Time Trump Voter Says He Feels Betrayed and Ashamed

A Facebook post by a longtime Donald Trump supporter has ignited a fierce online debate and offered a rare glimpse into a growing sense of betrayal inside parts of the MAGA movement.

Logik Roberts, who says he supported, campaigned for, and voted for Trump three times over an eight-year period, publicly renounced his faith in the former president in a blunt, emotional post shared on November 15. The post quickly drew hundreds of reactions and more than 150 comments, many of them revealing deep divisions among Trump’s own supporters.

Unlike criticism coming from political opponents, Roberts’ post landed differently. It came from someone who described himself as a frontline activist — not a skeptic, not a critic, but a believer who says he now feels discarded.


The Breaking Point

In his post, Roberts recounts years of loyalty fueled by Trump’s promises to dismantle what supporters often describe as a corrupt “uniparty” system. He writes that claims of a stolen election only deepened his trust, buying Trump more time in the eyes of his most committed base.

That trust, Roberts says, collapsed when supporters began demanding results — and were instead met with insults.

According to Roberts, Trump responded not by delivering on his promises, but by telling supporters to “shut up” and branding critics within his base as weak and disloyal.

The Post, In Full

Below is Logik Roberts’ full Facebook post, quoted exactly as written:

**“Im not ashamed to say i bought trumps lies his brand and his image hook line and sinker. Many of us truly believed the lie that he was gonna expose and dismantle the UNIPARTY deepstate. I convinced and brought many onto the trump train over the years. I supported and campaigned for Trump for 8 years and voted for him 3 times. I was definitely on the frontlines with many other patriots

The election being stolen only bought him another 4 years of our trust but after WE worked OUR BUTTS OFF to get him back in office and then when it finally got to the point where he was supposed to put up or shut up, what did he do??? he told US to SHUT UP and called us stupid bad panicans and WEAK and not true supporters!!!

He called all of his most die hard supporters stupid for demanding what he promised us!! 😡😡😡

I pray for those who are still making excuses for him and holding on to his every word like gospel 🙏🏾😞”**


Reaction: Sympathy, Mockery, and Conspiracy

The response to Roberts’ post was sharply divided.

Some commenters echoed his sense of regret and spiritual reevaluation. One wrote that she had been “humbled” and redirected her hope away from politics and toward faith. Another said it took courage to finally admit Trump was not delivering on what he promised.

Others reacted with hostility or dismissal. Some mocked Roberts for losing faith, while others warned him to stop questioning Trump and simply “let it play out.” Several commenters urged him to disengage from politics entirely.

A significant portion of responses leaned into conspiracy-based explanations, arguing Trump is not truly in control and that the military or unnamed forces are executing a long-term plan behind the scenes. Claims that political figures had already been executed or replaced with body doubles also appeared in the thread.


This Is What a Movement Looks Like When Accountability Arrives

Roberts’ post matters not because it is unique — but because it is public.

Trump’s movement has survived scandals, indictments, and electoral defeats largely because criticism was external. What it struggles with is internal accountability. Roberts is not rejecting Trump because of media pressure or political opponents. He is rejecting Trump because he believes the promises made to supporters like him were never meant to be fulfilled.

That distinction exposes a fault line.

For years, loyalty was rewarded with rhetoric, not results. Waiting was framed as strategy. Doubt was framed as betrayal. But once supporters began asking for delivery instead of slogans, the response — as described by Roberts — was dismissal.

Movements can survive opposition. They struggle when believers begin asking questions the leader does not want to answer.


Faith, Deflection, and the Refusal to Confront Failure

The comment thread also highlights a broader pattern within Trump’s base: when political faith weakens, religious framing often takes its place.

Many commenters insisted that God, not Trump, is ultimately in control. Others argued that Trump is merely a figurehead in a hidden plan. These responses do not resolve disappointment — they defer it indefinitely.

This allows belief to survive without evidence, but at a cost: accountability disappears.


When Supporters Are Told to “Shut Up,” Loyalty Erodes

Roberts’ post does not signal the collapse of the MAGA movement. But it does signal something harder to contain: disillusionment from within.

When longtime supporters say they were insulted for demanding what they were promised, the issue is no longer ideology — it’s trust. And once trust erodes, movements do not implode overnight. They fracture slowly, publicly, and angrily.

Roberts’ post is one data point. But it is a revealing one.

It shows what happens when belief meets reality — and reality does not blink.
