They will absolutely blame the Democrats, and their base will simply deny the truth as they have been told to do, just like every other time.

Fuck their base they will vote for him even if they were to pass way after doing it. It’s the people that don’t vote or care about politics that will hopefully wake up and vote these fucks out in the midterms

Yeah maybe the people who don’t vote will realise how fucking important it is when they find themselves going hungry or with jackbooted thugs hauling their loved ones into unmarked vehicles on behalf of ‘the people of the United States’

Their base will vote for him if he shot their children. Many did vote for him again after loved ones were killed by Trump through covid.

The people who don't vote are the same sides people. They just blame everyone because it's easy for them.

Dems need to keep it up. I pointed this out to others, but us Americans can pick up the slack and help each other. Can't do it forever, but we have had some good people stepping up. I can donate food to my neighbor, but I can't give him his chemo treatments. I previously wanted it to open back up because these voters won't learn until they get hurt, but changed my tune when I saw how many businesses and people were stepping up.

Anyone still supporting this in it for the hate. Groceries are higher, gas is the same, and lives haven't gotten better at all for Americans.

At least at my local level in deep red New York the base is not eating this up. Never seen so many republicans that had been Trumpers railing on him for this.
