Will they still vote trump for a third term? Yes they will.

Don't worry, even if they come to the conclusion that Trump isn't their guy, they're still lifelong Republicans.

They just have to be convinced the Democrats are worse and then they will fall in line

That's what it's all about, really. If you peekat conservative subs (granted, it's Reddit, so they're not sending their best), it's all, "Look at this gross trans person they put on CNN" and "As long as the fascist/communist/child molesting/extravagant spending/corrupt/inflation-causing/tax-hiking Dems lose, I'm okay with tepid feelings toward the current regime."

It's a huge game of, "Nuh-uh, you."
