Core MAGA will stay with him no matter what, but keep in mind, Americans are mostly idiot vibe voters. The typical voter blames the sitting POTUS and his party for whatever is happening, no matter if POTUS has any control over their complaint. FFS, people blamed egg prices on Biden!

Watch Mamdami's man on the street interviews with NYC Trump voters. Their reasoning boils down to, "My life isn't working out so I blamed Biden and hoped on Trump." With fewer and fewer lives "working out", Trump and the GOP are taking the heat. Notice how hard they're pushing this shutdown as the Democrat's fault? They understand everything I just wrote about.

Bet they're panicking behind the scenes. They have a year and a day until midterms. The economy and inflation is going to get far worse even if Trump stops fucking with it. If the GOP can't manage to rig hell out of the elections, or find a path to call it off, they're getting wiped out, worse than Trump's first term.
