I don't get how intentionally and provably enacting a horrifying and immoral policy that angered a majority of the people would be a "win" for them. Then again, there's a lot about Trumpeters that I don't understand.
But that's just it, isn't it? They aren't concerned at all about what a majority of people think, unless it blows up in their faces, as it did on this issue. Without the widespread outrage and protest, this would have been yet another of Trump's odious promises to his base made good. At least, that's how he would have spun it.
In Trumpworld, it's all about the base. He knows it. His team knows it. Unless he can keep delivering these so-called wins to the people who voted for him and keep them in a constant state of resentment, mean-spirited spitefulness, and schadenfreude, he'll never be able to generate enough support for his preferred mid-term candidates, let alone his re-election bid.
The worst among his supporters and possible congressional collaborators are the very people he needs to prevent his otherwise certain impeachment.
