Republicans like this right now because it benefits Donald. It's going to come back and bite them in the ass when it helps their opponents.
But they are the disenfranchised and the poor. They have the right to vote for someone who will gut regulations for corporations that will happily increase to looting and pillaging in the quest for profit.
The fact these people reason that it would be better for them with less regulations and oversight is beyond comprehension.
Republicans have learned that there are millions of votes on one particular issue that will allow them to do whatever on all other issues. Abortion.
You're assuming reason is involved here. Most of them vote R because that's how they were brainwashed into voting.
Most voters who suffered from the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment and the subsequent "controlled explosion" that poisoned the shit out of that area voted to deregulate everything. Trump even went there after the poisoning and did a rally.
You're assuming a lot: elections, peaceful transfer of power, Congress composition, even the unity of the states is an assumption at this point. If King Trump gets in, many states will refuse to cooperate (if you think this is too wild, many locales and at least one state already refuse to cooperate with ICE, Texas was at one point not cooperating with the Feds on their Southern border). What happens after that is anyone's guess.
The Democrats love it because is lucrative for donations. It's a terrible storm of pure evil and ineptitude.
