I feel like to effectively run as a strongman, you actually have to...be strong?
Trump ran face-first into COVID, failed to protect the nation from a pandemic, failed to get the military to be his enforcers, and presided under an unprecedented decline in American power.

Actual "strongman" things Trump has done:
1. Sent federal agents to Portland who accomplished nothing and we're kicked out
2. Mistreated a bunch of helpless asylum seekers who *turned themselves in*
3. Authorized a few ICE sweeps that didn't do much at all

What else is "strong" about Trump?
His tariffs were weak sauce that ended up backfiring.
He had that one Iranian general killed, I guess.
He tweeted a lot of angry tweets about China...

Trump is the weakest "strongman" I've ever seen. Any voter who thinks he's a source of safety and security is smoking something.
Really, I think Trump supporters see him not as a strong protector, but as someone THEY need to protect. A delicate flower of purity, maligned unfairly by the eeeevil media.
He's not a shogun. He's a waifu.
