Trump is selling. If you're not buying, he hasn't gotten to you yet. He's gathering the low hanging fruit right now. I'm shocked at how few here have not figured this out yet. You can't possibly believe that he made billions slinging this crap, can you? He's pulling the low info crowd now, and will start selling to the rest of us after he's got his delegates. Did ya'll forget what the "masses" elected the last two terms? This guy is a marketing genius and a force of nature. He gets it. He knows what people buy.
"The low info crowd"
I gotta ask, does that make you feel empowered somehow? I hear liberals use that sort of talk, and they refer to themselves as "intellectuals", as if promoting homosexuality and socialism somehow increased their IQ. It's an insult, and not a very well thought out one either. I think you might consider that you might need one of the low hanging fruit types to give you a job one day.
Vulk, you're totally backwards about this. The "low info crowd" are the ones voting for Trump. They aren't unlike the "low info crowd" on the liberal side that voted for Obama. Be honest, we got Obama for ONE reason--he's black. There were 35% first time voters in both of his elections, surveys showed nearly all of them were black. I am not making a racist statement against blacks, I'm making a comparison to this election cycle. We are seeing that same kind of hollow fandom in this cycle, it's like the Pied Piper really. And it's a distinct demographic who's chasing after Trump. I think your Facebook feed is a looking glass into human nature, so I'll use my FB page to illustrate the point... If I have a friend on FB who is very well spoken, highly educated (but not in the liberal indoctrination kind of way), a professional business owner, etc, he or she is against Trump. (Think white collar type of folks) Conversely, if I have a FB friend who is a "roughneck", the kind who posts pictures "Share this cross if you love Jesus", is a grease-monkey in a shop, goes home after work and plays X-box, uses profanity because he doesn't have a strong enough vocabulary to make his point otherwise, likes Nascar, then that person has a first-rate hard on for Trump. And I'm not exaggerating that description, that's honestly what I see. Most of those people have never spoke a word about politics before. But suddenly now they are experts: they hate Mexicans, hate the establishment, and they post every Trump meme that comes on Facebook.
Now look, I have never stepped foot in college, I am not "highly educated" in the academic sense. In fact, I am an outspoken critic about the Devil's schoolyard (American colleges). But I agree with being smart! Prager University (a conservative website) did a study and showed a distinct difference between those voting for Trump and those voting for other candidates. The least educated and lowest earners were voting for Trump. Not because they believed his platforms would change their lives, but because they connected with him.
