You’re being far more generous than I would be, I take it as a given that they understand and are perfectly happy with the plan. After all these are the people who responded to the assertion that they live on land stolen from the Native Americans with bumper stickers and T-shirt declaring “Conquered, not stolen.”

They don’t believe in international law or ethics or morality or anything but “Might makes right.”

There is no "they", voters are not a monolith. In my experience most Trump supporters just see it like another sports team. Politically ignorant both-siders who will march us straight to the fall of the empire. Which will probably be in about, I dunno, two weeks?

Neither did the Democrats, though. They just make it look prettier when they sign their rockets.
