MAGA will fall in line for Trump for the most part. Most of them don't have it mentally to change course or understand very much.

They will hire people to sooth the magas and the magas will take the bait, cuz they aren't very smart.

The billionaires probably figure magas mad over failure of Trump to hand over 'the files' might be their best route to turn magas to new puppet JD Vance.
