A striking photo of an Idaho billboard reading “Leaving MAGA” has gone viral on r/pics, drawing tens of thousands of views within just an hour of being posted. Located above a McDonald’s drive-thru in what the poster described as a “very red area,” the billboard was created by an organization called Leaving MAGA. Its message, “You’re not alone,” appears to be aimed at people questioning their political beliefs or reconsidering their allegiance to the movement.
The Reddit post was captured and uploaded by clumsypeach1. However, Leaving MAGA was founded by Rich Logis, who says he stopped supporting Trump in 2022. In a message addressed to MAGA Americans on the organization’s website, Logis writes: “You do not deserve to have your anxieties about change exploited. You deserve to know the truth. And with Leaving MAGA, you don’t have to feel you would be alone if you leave the movement.”
The “Leaving MAGA” Billboard Sparked Mixed Reactions—Some Hostile, Many Hopeful
Reaction to the Idaho “Leaving MAGA” billboard was mixed in the comment section. Many users condemned Trump supporters, while others expressed sympathy and understanding. Countless commenters simply said they were “tired” of it all and hoped the current administration would soon come to an end.
“I like seeing this. Could the world be healing?” one user remarked. “Extending an olive branch and showing understanding is truly the only way forward,” another added. Dozens of commenters echoed the sentiment, arguing that MAGA supporters should be welcomed back into the fold after the “Trump era of politics” rather than ostracized.
Many others were far less gentle in their wording, accusing MAGA supporters of wrongdoing or describing the movement as a “cult.” One person claimed they had “lost lifelong friends over this stupidity,” while another added a similarly negative view, saying, “They won’t change, they never change…”
While hostility over political values has spread widely across social media, this single photo offers a reminder that some people hope to reach the other side without resorting to aggressive confrontation. As Leaving MAGA founder Rich Logis explained, “MAGA is a community,” and anyone preparing to leave it will need a new community to turn to—one filled with people who understand their experience.
