Somehow I do not believe it.
Actually, I do think if the Dems dropped their more extreme positions then you'd see support for Trump start to fade. It's never going to go away entirely, but many people see him as a bulwark against a radical Dem agenda that threatens the very cultural fabric of the nation. The idea of being a nation of law and order (ironic considering the zeal in which they've gone after Trump) literally doesn't exist in many deep blue areas. I could go on about other cultural touchstones, but none would surprise anyone.
It also doesn't help that things were perceivably better under Trump, regardless of whether he was responsible for it or not.
