> Funny considering Trump ran on policies nearly the opposite of what he's doing today

MAGA base and Trump supporters are not rational. It does not matter what Trump is doing or saying, they're "taking their country back" even if they're losing their jobs or benefits. This is downright a cult of personality.

I have a new opinion that fits better imo: that they genuinely like it when other people suffer, even at their own expense.

From this perspective Trumps policies are all mostly rational.
