As we move forward, more and more Trumpers are going to realize that Fox news punked them. They caused them to believe the border numbers are an existential threat to the country and their happiness and well being. They were stirred into a frenzy by it.
Trump will be successful in dropping border crossings with his theatre of shock and awe. But Trumpers will find that it has no tangible effect on their lives. Nothing will change for them.
What will change for them is all the dismantling Trump is doing to the Federal government.
And the cherry on top of the Sundae will be that Biden and Obama deport more people than Trump over their 4 year term because he is doing it the unproductive way for show.
Trump's border czar is already whining that it is tough to find criminals to deport. (for their theatre)
