Trump saying stupid shit makes the media money, stupid people who think trump is "smart" watch Trump because they eat this up like candy, producing ratings.

All about making money, screw the country.


And I haven't heard one intelligent person yet say they support Trump, it's usually clueless morons who hate "them crooked politicians" but love crooked businessmen.
