The irony that many low income idiots who rely upon the very safety nets that the Republicans are targeting to limit or destroy is palpable.
They will lose that support and some how do the mental gymnastics to blame the Democrats for it sadly
These movements are sometimes led by fantastically wealthy faux populists who hoodwink gullible voters by promising to solve a litany of problems that always seem to involve money, immigrants, and minorities. The appeals from these charlatans resonate most not among the very poor, but among a bored, relatively well-off middle class, usually those who are deeply uncomfortable with racial and demographic changes in their own countries.
Well it sure worked
That’s not how Republicans do. They’ll love every second of their own oppression so long as women/queer/colored/etc people are being oppressed too.
Like crabs in a bucket
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. - H.L. Mencken
