    He’s really not, his base is dumb and he plays to them rather effectively but he’s not dumb just manipulative and without morality.

      I disagree, he’s dumb and horrible with anything that has to do with economics too. Fascism is a terrible system.

        I subscribe to the dumb-dumbs can vote for dumb-dumbs theory myself.

        Politicians play roles, his is to be hateful and just barely effective. In that situation playing dumb is quite effective.

      I agree that he manipulates his base.

      He’s a fucking idiot, that’s not negotiable. He does too many things that do not serve the manipulation of his base that are too dumb to excuse. The meatball has no brain.
