Don't let Republicans out-strategize Democrats. There was serious public opposition to the budget bill. Trump's internal numbers were imploding. The fake fight is about expanding MAGA and keeping MAGA voters loyal to one or more brands of MAGA - Elmo MAGA, Trump MAGA, Bannon MAGA, Stew Peters MAGA, Alex Jonestown MAGA. When Trump does an unpopular action, one of the MAGA cult leaders attacks the cult leader, not to split MAGA, to keep the MAGA voters loyal to the movement.
"Jim Jones changes kool aid flavor to grape. Did you hear that, I am outraged. Alex Jones wants Orange Flavored Kool Aid, that is my kind of flavor of MAGA/Jim Jones Kool Aid"
