Also remember - Trump doesn't need the votes anymore from his base. He could pivot on all of his promises or some of these things or make just enough of a visible attempt to give a perception of things are being changed. It wouldn't make a difference. He's said a lot of things and made a lot of promises since being elected the first time. Very few things actually trickled down to the average person. At least nothing that was a lasting change couldn't be undone by the next administration due to bad policy. I say this as someone who voted for him. (I knew what who I was voting for though and had very little expectations of change.)
- w4ffl35 2y agoYes like I said: > Does trump's base matter now that he's in his 2nd term? I doubt it.
- bdangubic 2y agoif he is set of pilaging what he can for the next two years - this is 100% right. he’ll get buttfucked in 2026 midterms like in 2018… but I think he does want at least 4 years of full power and will want the votes for one more election cycle
