Will Trump supporters ever admit it?

You know what the best part of the shilling from his likes is? How deliciously self defeating it is
If an actual astute political strategist, unlike Pollster, was here, he could tell you Trump supporters are an unprecedented mish-mash of disparate groups in his unruly republican coalition made up of neoconservatives, evangelicals, big business, disaffected anti-establishment millenials who jumped from bernie, paulite isolationist libertarians, internet trolls, military families, rural farmers and their opioid addicted suicidal white underemployed middle-aged males both in and outside the rust belt. These groups couldn't agree on a place to go for lunch much less a health care plan. Evangelicals want to go backwards on gay marriage, while the paulite kooks are aghast at a 12th aircraft carrier, and I bet you wouldn't poll above 20% in millenial trump supporters who don't believe in climate change. All these fractious interests are destined to infight, and yet what have the democrats been doing? Pushing a retarded russia-trump angle. Voicing extremism and intolerance and histrionics. Maybe only half of trump supporters would actually agree with his healthcare plan, but good luck finding any at all who think he's Putin's stooge. All the national stories are then about russia and the counter-narrative of wiretapping, and it all serves to unite a divided base against a common foe, so they simply don't have time to infight. Trump can't even get the house to pass their own healthcare bill, much less swallow his more moderate or even socialist ideas he's tossed around in the past, but rather than some great republican meltdown and democrats seizing the opportunity to wedge their way in with a compromise to make up the few needed votes, the top story on the news for a week is "Ted Lieu: 'We must pause the entire Trump agenda' until Russia investigation complete" and calling trump and illegitimate president.
The democrats are powerless, but the republicans are weak, and if they hadn't turned their frankenstein's monster of a tea party simulacrum from this past election year on themselves, they'd actually be able to act to exploit the divisions instead of unite their enemies.
He should quit acting like he is guilty and release his tax returns so that the public can openly see where his conflict of interests lie
We have never had a president so beholden to foreign powers. He literally can't borrow money from the American business community because of how poor of a business he has been in the past and he has been living off loans from foreign banks.
He needs to get real about this. Only the most committed shills think this is a nothing burger. This is more important than Benghazi and we investgated that...
But if he wants to not be held in suspicion he needs to quit being hostile to transparency.
