    It’s not frauds, they’re just hearing stuff differently than you are.

    What they hear is ‘my tribe (which is also your tribe as long as you support me) will get all the things, and everyone else will be left with nothing! Look, we’re so good at taking resources that even the law can’t stop us! Look, we’re so dedicated to taking resources that we’ll even beat up small children!’

    For them, all that fraudster stuff (and in the case of Trump and ICE, attacking kids) just makes them look better to those types. It shows they’ll scrap as dirty as they can to get all the stuff for ‘their team’. It’s the dark side of tribalism and it tends to rear its ugly head during unsettled times, due to limited resource access.
