They enjoy being fleeced.

When it happens, they just blame the Libs.

TFG supporters Do Not care if they are fleeced. And even if they do, they'll still vote the same.

When TFG was running that scam last year, where supporters kept having payments being charged/deducted because they didn't check a box, there would be interviews with those who said they were still planning on voting for him.

The average American is dumb as a rock. Sorry, but that's the truth. repub politicians know this, and they're more than willing to fleece their supporters, because there won't be any consequences. In fact, there's NEVER any consequences for them.
