A supporter of former President Donald Trump said this week that there was a limit to her devotion — but said she need to see her idol do something incredibly extreme such as a wanton act of child abuse.
In an interview with journalist Ben Jacobs at Slate, Iowa Trump supporter Ashley Long said she would abandon Trump if he did "something super heinous."
"It would have to be a video of Trump punting a baby for him not to be my guy," she specified.
Trump has already been found liable for sexual abuse and has been indicted on 91 felony counts related to hush-money payments to adult film stars, obstructing government efforts to retrieve top-secret documents from his Mar-a-Lago resort, and his efforts to remain in power after losing the 2020 election.
Long was not the only Trump supporter who expressed feverish devotion to the former president.

Minnesota Trump supporter Chris Seedorf, for instance, told Jacobs that he was willing to "take a bullet" for Trump and expressed confidence that Trump would do the same for him.
"He’d do it, too, for everyone else," he said.
And Iowa Trump supporter Pam Bygness told Jacobs that Trump's criminal indictments had only strengthened her admiration for him.
“He is truly a patriot,” she said. “You tell me what other man could go through what he has gone through to keep fighting for this country.”
