> You had to be genuinely gullible to vote for Trump this time

It seems like he's mostly doing what his coalition was hoping he would do? Certainly to a greater degree than in 2016. I have not seen any credible indications of post-election regret from his coalition.

They believed that things were bad and that Trump would make them better rather than worse. If that's not gullibility, I don't know what is.

His voters will ultimately be among his greatest victims... but he'll blame Biden for whatever goes wrong, and they'll lap it up like a dog with a dish of antifreeze, just like they always do.
