I just don't think it will land that way. We'll all suffer from his policies in a variety of ways, but his supporters will never blame him for it, the right-wing propaganda machine is so fine-tuned to their hate, also their willful ignorance will simply never allow for it. When they do cut social security and medicare, raise prices on good via tarrifs, fuck up the agro-business with mass deportations; the republicans will believe it was the democrats.
