The REAL Reason I Left Ring Of Fire

After nearly two decades with Ring of Fire, I officially stepped away from the program at the start of December — and almost immediately, speculation began to swirl. Let me set the record straight.

With Donald Trump’s grip on the Republican Party already weakening, many are beginning to wonder what happens to the MAGA movement once Trump is no longer in office—or no longer alive. Is MAGA a lasting political force that will simply transfer its loyalty to a new figure, or is it something far more fragile and dependent on one man? Looking at declining self-identification numbers, growing voter regret, and the absence of any clear successor, the evidence suggests MAGA may already be in serious decline. 

After years of nonstop scandals, chaos, and outrage, many Americans are experiencing what’s become known as “Trump fatigue.” While the constant barrage of news can feel impossible to ignore, there are moments when the sheer volume becomes overwhelming and people simply tune out altogether. So how does someone who covers Donald Trump and right-wing politics every day avoid burning out completely? And what can regular viewers do to protect their own mental health without disconnecting entirely from reality?
