The vocal majority are binary ideologues.
In the case of Trump:
One side - Anything Trump does and anything associated with Trump is 100% bad, and if you hate Trump you're good.
The other side - Everything Trump does is good any anything associated with Trump is good, and anyone who criticizes Trump is bad.
It actually boils down to, everything you like is good and everything you don't like is bad. Binary ideologues simply can't see past one side of an issue. This is why the term, disinformation, is embraced. Anything that doesn't agree with how you see things is "disinformation and should be censored.
In my own humble opinion, binary ideologues are a danger to humanity as a whole.
It's a huge market, and always has been. Lots of wealthy gays with no kids to tie them down and plenty of time for travel. Thailand should definitely benefit by being seen as now being even more gay friendly with marriage rights. With covid shutting international travel down for a couple of years, many, not just gays, are ready to make up those lost travel years.
I don't see any downside, other than the certified copies to attach to the W-7, which I would need for next year's paper tax return.
No state returns required, no itemized deductions.
Upside is another $60k in tax-free LTCG.
Upside is higher tax-free limit for interest and dividends.
Upside is eventual SS payments will have a higher tax threshold.
