No. If you think that, you don’t understand Trump’s appeal. People who value hierarchy like him because he pretends to be on top. His brand isn’t a “successful business person”, it’s just “guy who gets away with everything”. Anything that punishes him hurts that brand.
He’s not “oppressed guy”. That brand only works for Democrats. Republicans want to vote for winners, not complainers. That’s why all the other candidates sucked up to Trump after he won the nomination.
Just being on trial hurts Trump’s brand because he obviously can’t control his day when he’s in court. A conviction on multiple felonies will hurt even more.
And you are looking at Trump’s appeal backwards. Trump supporters do not look at facts then decide whether or not to love him, Trump supporters love him unconditionally then twist and invent “facts” to validate their position. Trump has already been found guilty of defamation against Jean Carroll twice and it hasn’t hurt him a bit.
Losing a civil trial doesn’t hurt Trump unless he has to sell some buildings. He doesn’t have the cash but his Truth Social grift may pay for it. That’s why few supporters cared about it. It doesn’t affect him like losing the election or being sentenced to house arrest (likely scenario).
Don’t you remember how even Fox News didn’t want him on the show after he was booted out of the White House? Crazy people cared more about Q-Anon than Trump and his supporters were dejected.
Trump supporters 100% care about facts, they just don’t admit it to you. They care if they win and are pissed if they don’t. It’s just like sports fans who want to win and complain about refs if they lose. They are still upset at the team for losing even if they complain about the refs.
