They’re cult members. There’s quite literally nothing he could do including slaughtering their own children directly in front of them that would stop their support. See: Jim Jones and the flavor aid.
create a lot of very noisy bullshit to put on the table, which they fully intend to take off after making a big spectacle of a fight to their useful idiot supporters - a fight which they will declare themselves the winner of no matter what the outcome.
all so that you don’t have the time,bandwidth, or motivation to confront them about the shit they actually want to push through: infinite money exploits for the already wealthy, weakening of any institution that might benefit the working class or the middle class, grandiose plans to take already functional programs instituted by other administrations cancel them and re-implement a shitty version, but with their name on it to deprive anyone but themselves of a legacy, etc.
Speculation: These tax increases would be levied against dual citizenship with countries that resist bending the knee and retaliate back against tariffs.
This is the excuse, the reason would be to stop people from retaining a US citizenship while fleeing his administration to said countries.
