11. The reality is that the felon is woefully out of his depth AND that the crowd is cheering him on.

If you watch clips on X (which I just did), you can see that he's absolutely full of shit and the comments from his supporters that read like he's channeling Abraham Lincoln.

It's mind-numbing that someone can listen to him answering these questions and think - this is the guy who's right for the country.

Sure, he speaks like you and acts like you - but his supporters are also as fucking dumb as a fucking fence post. Do they understand simple economic terms? No. Do they understand simple economic principles? No. Do they understand tariffs? Fuck No.

These morons and the people who prey on them are why we can't have nice things.
