Honestly, the problem here is that even if these folks do suffer under Trump, they'd find a way to blame someone else.

A lot of these people are so indoctrinated they'll never accept their leader could be the one hurting them

That's how it works, at least since I've been alive. Republicans bitch and get elected, fuck up everything. Democrats take power back and spend the whole time fixing shit and getting blamed for the past administration, which leads people to vote Republicans back in. Rinse and repeat

With the polls showing the percentage of people who thought things were better under Trump it is clear that the majority of the voting public are morons who are completely disconnected from reality. They watched him shit on soldiers, lie constantly, stare at the sun during an eclipse, brag about sexual assault, put a rapist on the Supreme Court, call COVID a hoax, get COVID, discourage vaccines, refuse to concede he lost in 2020, instigated a failed coup, say he planned on being a dictator on day 1, show obvious signs of sundowning, say he would use violence against his political opponents, and the 'undecided voters' still decided they would rather have that white guy than a woman who is a minority because 'Trump is more likely to handle a crisis'.

Propaganda based on lies is more effective than reality.
