Former Trump election lawyer Jenna Ellis on Tuesday became the latest to cop a plea deal in the state of Georgia, where she tearfully expressed her regrets for having ever gotten involved in the former president's efforts to remain in power after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.
Many Trump supporters were predictably not pleased with this turn of events – and they took to Twitter to bash Ellis for seemingly turning against the former president, who has been indicted on 91 felony counts in four different jurisdictions.
Failed Florida congressional candidate and longtime MAGA enthusiast Laura Loomer, for one, said that Ellis' plea has confirmed her view that Ellis is a "disloyal wench" who has been stealing from Trump supporters by asking them for donations to help pay her legal bills.

"She’s now going to use the money so many of you foolishly gave her to work against President Trump in an election year," Loomer fumed. "Shame on every single MORON who donated to Jenna Ellis."
Fellow Trump supporter Alexander Sheppard, meanwhile, expressed a similar sentiment and demanded that Ellis return all the money she raised from the MAGA faithful.
"I don't know how anyone could trust her after this," he griped.
Derrick Evans, a former West Virginia delegate who also served prison time for storming the United States Capitol on January 6th, 2021, said he could forgive Ellis for pleading guilty to avoid jail time, but not for "throwing President Trump under the bus."
"For that reason, Jenna Ellis will always be known as a disloyal coward and a total scumbag," he commented.
And another "America First" Twitter user speculated that Ellis was lying about her guilt just to save herself at Trump's expense.
