What exactly is the argument for someone who was not voting for Trump now voting for him due to an attempted assassination? I don't understand this take.
I think a case could be made that this will absolutely galvanize the luke warm part of his base that "likes his policies but not his attitude/tweets/whatever". There are plenty of republicans that were put off by Jan 6, or maybe even the legal cases and might have stayed home this November, but will come out to support him now.
