To clarify, I'm not talking people who want to support Trump, but are afraid to.
I'm talking people who are on his side and would back him in a minute, but either he's convinced them to pretend not to, or who have decided of their own volition to do so to get into all the dirty little secret meetings, etc. to undermine the cabals from within.
Think reps/senators who bash him in public but quietly feed him info on the side, or who wait for the right moment to undo the Leftists' damage.
Dunno why I'm asking, the idea just popped into my head.
I am on board with this as a possibility. It seems Trump has had public fights with people who could very well be fully on his team (eg Bannon, maybe Sessions, maybe even Pence).
I also think that there could be certain corrupt politicians whose votes the White Hats control when they need it because they have all the dirt on everybody.
I was never under the impression Bannon actually hated trump, tbh. At worst, I was under the impression he thought trump was a bit shortsighted, maybe even childish at times, lol.
Trump tweeted some mean things about Bannon shortly after his 2017 inauguration. Personally, I think it was for show. I don't know of anything bad Bannon ever said about Trump.
I think there was some scandal with bannon, and trump had to distance from him? it wasn't anything to do with trump, just something bannon supposedly did...
My only point is that the relationship on the surface can be different than it is under the surface. OP wondered if there were sleeper trump supporters and I think it's possible.
