I would frame that as being motivated to satisfy their base, vs being motivated to succeed.

Success usually has a positive connotation, and they don't seem to be doing a particularly good job if you take the "reduce the size of the government" goal at face value (they are making messes everywhere they go, with the government shrinking slower than normal attrition...).

Their bases in this context is also one or two men, not voters.

Their base is the MAGA gestalt. They like you imply do follow the will of one man however, so that's not far from the truth, but they also have a guaranteed 30% of the voting population no matter what the gestalt Prime does to them or the USA

Success is subjective and is defined by common people’s expectation in this scenario.
