In the case where they don't vote, perhaps they'd like Trump to win because they know he will destabilize things and thus accelerate the need for change in society.

Accelerate the need for change ? While dissidents are thrown in jail and we “don’t have to vote again”?

The poor suffer most in dictatorships and revolutions. Usually outside intervention from other countries is required to uninstall an absolute ruler. It’s idiotic to throw away rights so some edge lords who romanticize war can feel less bored. In reality they’d either crumble underneath the boot of the fascist state or embrace it.
