Trump is really only happy when playing to his base. They don’t understand economic policy and don’t listen to it. (A doom-loop of nonattainment.) Neither does he, actually. So he’ll always circle back to his happy place, which is their happy place, where they all shout insults together at the woke, Trump as leader and the MAGAs as followers.
However it’s the undecideds and independents who will clinch the election, many of whom can be swayed.
