View submission: Trump and the Folklore of Capitalism
While what you are saying is true for some of these supporters, who then can't think one step further and try and figure out what Trumps solutions are and why they wouldn't make sense, not all fall into this category. There is a malicious component as well (the "trigger the libs" types).
This is why I have been posting this anywhere I can.
"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past." Jean-Paul Sartre
They know what they are doing, they are capitalizing on confusion and anger over their rhetoric while they achieve their goals. This is why they all have the smug look on their face because they know everything that they are saying is in bad faith.
Nothing about Trump says anything about strong or tough or "businessman" except to illiterate children or child like mentalities. He is the epitome of everything that Americans grew up hating and cartoonish in appearance and actions.
There's nothing here!
