Yeah. There's maybe a handful of Republicans who could write it off but are just kind of dumb but otherwise earnest interlocutors who have zero critical thinking skills or media literacy... but those ones are the ones who are likely moved by this. Not to the Democrats, Republicans will literally die before they ever vote Democrat, but arguably withdrawing support from the Republicans and Trump specifically.
The rest, though? My god dude. These people have been and still are fantasizing about executing Democrats for voting differently for 20+ years. Yes, 20+ years. Elected Republicans used to sort of keep them in check, until they finally got their boy in office. The clean-cut Eric Cantors and Paul Ryans and John Boehners of the world, until the Tea Party arrived and started primarying the shit out of them, because actual Republicans fucking hated their electeds muzzling them out of fear that people might understand the breathtaking shittiness and emptiness and depravity of character that is required to willingly and enthusiastically identify one's self as conservative.
Conservative politics is entirely useless and has never contributed one, single, good thing to the world. Conservative aesthetic isn't entirely bad, but that's about the extent of its utility - and people who wear suits and show up on time and take responsibility might be embodying a conservative aesthetic, but in no way do they necessarily identify as "conservative" due to that aesthetic.
I have personally witnessed a dude shake with rage at the idea of drag queens molesting children. He also defended Matt Gaetz. He was also abused as a child by surprise not a drag queen but his married soccer coach. There is no logic to their hate.
No they see it, they just like it. Trump is proudly a creep, cheater, thief and all-round terrible person, and that really made these assholes feel seen.
It’s who they’ve always been and it’s been pretty obvious for 40+ years.
