All of those points are basically Trump and Trump only.
And they're not a caricature in the least. They are literally things that he has said.
It seems there are some supporters, let's call them the red hats, that literally believe what he says. And then there are other supporters, let's call them the white hats, who know that what Trump says is false, but want the red hats on their side, and they think they can control Trump. The white hats know it's all a narrative, but they are trying to hitch a ride on it.
If the liberals in the Democratic party ever give up their sense of the facts or of truth, and decide to hitch a ride on the back of progressives the same way, everything will be a lot worse.
