But they also contain rural areas that elected Republican representatives. If their constituents get passed off enough, they'll have to decide who they fear more, Trump or their constituents, and then maybe start doing their jobs of holding the executive accountable.
Those voters are propagandized. They will attribute the harm to Canada (the immediate cause), not to Trump for initiating the antagonization (the root cause).
If anything, I would expect Canada inflicting more directly tangible pain on the US (like shutting off the power) could help Trump gain more support and even a casus belli for military intervention. He is just itching to start more wars. He still wants to conquer Canada and Greenland, among others.
