I don't believe all Republicans are that stupid, I think they are worse than stupid. They don't believe in Trump, they accept Trump and accept everything he does and says. What that means for future presidents I haven't a clue. Horrible precedents are being set every day by both the President and his Republican enablers.
I don't think they would 'accept everything Trump does and says,' if they hadn't been groomed to do so by liberal provocations.
Just on the simple issue of abortion alone, they have never even had a GOP president who is willing to stand up to abortion, so people who feel the need to stand up to abortion politically have no one else to turn to, do they?
Then there's the feeling that the Democrats are not really transparent and that they will look for ways to appeal to the public without truly embracing the values they espouse to gain votes. In other words, they seem to spin anything to fit popular expectations, but that their real agenda is slightly different than the face they are presenting to the public.
Really if you want to win against Trump for some reason, e.g. to trump Trump for the sake of trumping Trump, the way to do it would be to have a third party candidate who can distinguish/distance himself or herself from the Democrats, but that will be impossible because the public would assume that moneyed string-pullers behind the scenes are just orchestrating an overthrow of Trump/GOP because all their other tactics haven't worked.
It takes a lot to build trust and Trump has done it by sticking with his guns despite unpopularity. So in that sense, his biggest allies have been his critics/opposers, because they have helped him show that he won't budge despite their attacks.
If anything, it is the idea that the Democrats and other anti-Trumpers are actually working for Trump by attacking him and thus making him look strong in the face of antagonism that could be Trump's Achilles heel, but that would require somehow proving that there is a conspiracy on the part of Trump's opponents to make him look stronger, which would offend all the anti-conspiracy people who identify with the left precisely because they associate conspiracy-theory with Republicans.
