Hell in a sense they are ideologically consistent, the logic is just that whatever Trump says is automatically true lmao. I do love to laugh at their flip flopping too, though. For instance like how before the vaccine dropped they were all "trump's vaccine is the answer to all life's problems" and the dems were all "I will never trust a trump vaccine" and now the trumpers are all "I will never trust the vaccine" and the dems are like "the vaccine is the answer to all life's problems" and the BEST part is that neither side even remembers their previous position from a few months previous. Hell they even supported things they've always been against under him, like the bump stock ban and red flag laws, they never would have supported that under anyone else except maybe their last deified leader, Ronald Reagan.
Edit: oh forgot to mention, that bit about "been wronged" is actually textbook cult leader material, and I should know because I am in a cult praise "Bob". Every cult needs an enemy, see: The Anti Cancer Temple by Tobias Antony Crump. Among other things, they feed off of a victim mentality.
