The #VoteBlue crowd will praise Walz' performance and make attacks against Vance.

The MAGA crowd will praise Vance's performance and make attacks against Walz.

I think we're way past lumping all Trump/Vance supporters as "MAGA", I think "Normal People" works better and is a more accurate description of the group as a whole.
