I'm comparing the premise. The madness expressed in the meme with the madness of the forced out strategic position the politician takes. One that he ofc is not blue haired and hippie enough to actually believe.
Like the Democrat establishment isn't and were never actually woke, and so the woke left stopped trusting them and went for those who are left from Bernie. You don't start disagreeing with all you've ever "stood for" (which would be 80% of Trump's politics) the very moment Trump announces he wants to crack down on you.
