This literally is. The dude is doing exactly what he said he would. Why is anyone surprised at what's going on.

Without reading the article (fuck you NYT, you enabled this shit) I'm going to guess his point is that who Trump is and who Americans think Trump is are not the same thing.

Trump said so much shit in 2024 that any person who could stand to listen to him would eventually hear him talk about their pet issue. So they're all waiting for him to take care of the issue they care about instead of understanding that they're the fucking rubes who Trump only used to stay out of jail and now doesn't give a shit about.
