The base is mobilized into action against imaginary demons or irrelevant issues; since there's no pushback, it feels like victory.

And these culturally meaningless victories give the base a sense of unity and power. They probably feel like Trump's promises are true.

This is all to build momentum, to induce a victory rush, so that when the real shit starts, the base is going and can't stop.

This is straight out of propaganda handbooks. It's done over and over. Give the masses small victories that play to their frustrations.
