there was this black girl who pretended to be MAGA. She went on twitter saying how her family kicked her out because of it so she decided to “speak her truth”. She managed to get sympathy from trump supporters and got them to donate to her go fund me. Only got $200 out of it and she returned the donations after admitted she just made it up for fun lmao

In an interview with New York magazine, Quran said she simply decided to “capitalize” off of all of the recent efforts by Republicans to shed the reputation that they’re “mostly racist.”

“A lot of Republicans have this idea that everyone thinks Republicans are mostly racist and they’re really desperate to get that stigma off of them,” she said. “I just felt like capitalizing on that.”

here’s a buzzfeed article on it buzzfeednews.com/…/college-student-faked-maga-tru…

there’s also a high chance some MAGA influencers are just grifters anyway
