    Banger of a response. I’ve understood some of those things about conservatism but you’ve filled in a lot of the missing parts in my understanding.

    There’s a lot of truth in that. Kind of makes sense that they would rally behind the idiot because it would take a criminal mastermind to pull of a real coup. He’s good with the criminal part, just not the mastermind part. Though, the 45th-dimensional chess play would be that he’s secretly a democratic asset.
