The "changed policy positions" of supporters that I described in the two prior paragraphs, which you seem to have just ignored. I certainly knew Trump was going to impose massive tariffs (aka taxes landing chiefly on consumers), run up the debt, and create hefty price inflation like he did the first time around. But all of the people saying they were supporting Trump because of "inflation" certainly didn't appear to. I will ask again: how was your "I support Trump because he wants to raise taxes. BTW I'm a democrat" argument received in 2024? Did you find a lot of agreement among fellow Trump supporters? And as I also said, tariffs aren't really a "consumption tax" as economists champion, because they also tax industrial investment - exactly one of the things Trump claims his policies are meant to encourage, not discourage. But you skipped addressing that point, too.
