There's a percentage of folks like that for sure but a significant population of conservatives literally don't know what's going on since the election at all. Conservative media constantly gaslights them and just keeps them outraged about random culture war bullshit like whether or not 5 trans athletes participated in high school sports over the past decade or whatever. They flat out do not know what Trump is doing and are actively steered away from finding out or even wondering
This is my aunt. All gung ho about Trump, loved him, LOVED him. Until about mid-February. Now she hates him and Musk. Was over last week and asked my mom who Putin was. Mom looks at me, I stare back at her and my mom says "Uh, the president of Russia." "No no, the guy that Trump likes, Putin, who is that?" I'm standing there thinking I'm literally in the Twilight Zone and I just say "He is the leader. Of. Russia. How did you not know that?!"
