Trump can do no wrong in your eyes: it's baffling that you're so blind to his failings, inadequacies and insecurities.
It serves as a window. A window into a world where it's easy to align yourself with populist solutions, not the complex world of reality politics where solutions are very complex and the route to where we have got to has history and through that history, we find, most things are very grey.
Problem with immigrants - get rid of them.
USaid - not my problem, it's their problem
Medicare/Medicaid - they're just silly poor people who aren't successful like us/me. They should get a job.
Trade deficit - it's definitely everybody else's fault, especially China - slap some tariff's on them.
Ukraine - they're just war mongers, Putin is actually a nice guy (Putin is one of us a dictators).
etc etc Except that's the spin they ride on but the actuality is that the current administration really is the government for the elite (autocrats) but they can't see through it. The box of impulsive quick solution has been ticked and it's the bone (bereft of marrow) the followers blindly carry.
