Pro trump Dems?

I had no idea these pro trump Dems existed.
Are pro trump Dems are not Dems or are they Dems? How could a Dem support trump,a fascist? I don't understand this.
This is not meant to denigrate Dems. I am truly baffled about this.

their "Black Lives Matter For Trump" phony social media accounts in 2016. But that's not to say there aren't actual people who become attracted to these groups. It's likely a miniscule phenomenon, or outright fakes, Republicans posing as Democrats for Trump to troll Dems. Maybe Brad Parscale is behind these groups.

Reagan won in 1980 on the basis of long-time working class Democrats.

Many WV coal miners (union members) are Democrats. Trump promised their jobs would come back.

The old mantra they tried before about all the dems switching over and I think they were saying just change or something like that. It was all bullshit and this is the same bullshit with a new package.

QAnon conspiracies. They are being convinced daily that Trump is the savior. I have a friend actively trying to recruit me who has successfully recruited her husband and a lot of their friends.

This thing is growing. And Dems suck at messaging. This is Biden’s election to lose. But we do not have it in the bag by any means!
