They do not, which is why Miller, Bannon, Rubio et all are begging Donald to invoke the Insurrection Act. With the US military they could do some real damage to the next election.
The problem, though, is that they’re so vastly unpopular that it may not even matter. They stopped the extreme gerrymandering attempts because the evidence mounted fairly quickly that they’d destroyed the coalition they built to win the 2024 elections, so all the gerrymandering was really accomplishing was making them even more unpopular. That has been evident by the two-dozen districts that have flipped in the elections since, all of which were won by Donald in 2024 and most won by Donald by double digits.
I expect that Donald will escalate wildly in the coming months, because even all of the abundant evidence that his politics and aggression so far are losing him the 2026 elections hasn’t been enough to make him stop. He lives by the Roy Cohn doctrine, which means never giving up and never admitting defeat. Ever.
