Anything that either "the libs" bring up, or is attributed to them, becomes fodder for polarization propaganda. So there is no stable statement of MAGA being "satisfied" with something since the goalposts are always moved by propaganda. For example, "Defeat Project 2025" projects were derided as libs acting dumb, e.g. (1) Trump had attempted to sidestep association with it, (2) libs were demonstrating more of their "Trump Derangement Syndrome", (3) some parts of p2025 had been highlighted and praised in MAGA media. So a positive association with p2025 by MAGA was not due to thoughtful committment to some principle or desire. They're flooded with misinformation, and don't believe they should be concerned about being misinformed, partly because anything negative about MAGA is projected as "the bad thing the libs do", e.g. be misinformed is the other guy's problem, not mine.
