Trump’s Syracuse Motorcade Meets a Wall of Fury as Thousands Flood the Streets: ‘You’re Not Welcome Here’ (allchronology.com)

Donald Trump came to Syracuse hoping to energize Republicans ahead of the midterm elections. Instead, one of the defining images of his visit may be the furious reception waiting for him outside.

Your right. I can't argue against that. Republicans won elections because Democrats stopped voting, they didn't turn Republican they just didn't vote.

I'm still mad at those who allowed trump to win a second term. I really can't forgive them. Roe vs Wade being over turned, ICE, the Palestinian genocide, AI, were truly screwed, not voting wasn't worth it

That is by far the most likely outcome of the mid-terms too.

I don't think deep red voters will flip, but I do think a meaningful percentage of them simply won't vote, given that it's evidently a waste of their time to do so.
