Is that true?

I had a quick search and i only found one case - a Michael J Dale covered in various outlets alleging dismissal for MAGA support back in 2018. However, i cant find that the case actually went to court. It appears Michael has decided against testing his claim in court?

I can find some cases for the opposite - dismissal for criticising president Trimp:

Jeff Klinzman had his day in court and was awarded a payout.

Rob Rogers didn’t go through courts but former employer on record in the Guardian newspaper confirming reason for his dismissal was his criticism of trump.

Craig Silverman again didn’t go via courts but his previous employer confirmed the reason for his shows termination.

Allegations that don’t appear to have gone to court yet:

Dr. Bandy Lee (2020) Gabriel Noronha (2020)

Cases (as in court cases) are just the easily visible tip of the iceberg. We do not see the aggrieved who did not make their story public for whatever reason.

MAGA proponents are not fools and know when to keep their opinions to themselves, I've noticed. My last company was openly hostile to the last President as a matter of informal policy, and there was much polite nodding in supposed agreement.
