when ordinary folks - many of whom voted for twitler - begin to suffer more economically than they have been previously because of his tinpot tirades creating uncertainty, tightening up credit, etc., it won't work. Of course, the diehards will believe it - those 22-23 percent of the implacable trump supporters - but the rest of those affected will know better. It's always the president and his party who get blamed for a bad economy.
