To Trump supporters, this sound like "The deep state doesn't want Trump to be president". Messaging like this reinforces their narratives
Can anyone really be so dumb as to see people who Trump himself appointed to office and worked closely with saying "this guy is an evil wannabe dictator" and think "man, those guys are part of the deep state conspiracy to destroy Trump"?
Yes
Yes, I have family this deep in the cult
It's not those people that this sways. They are a "lost cause" in most regards. It's the people who have hesitations and concerns. The people that have been lifelong Republicans but are feeling jaded or are starting to see through the facade.
It helps sway those people.
Tbh I'm skeptical that this is a demographic that exists in any meaningful capacity.
