when he tried to stifle a chuckle at his own wacky performance....

Which makes me wonder whether his whole schtick is just that - performance art.

paid actors. He gets some $$ for a few more interviews to take the spotlight away from Clem's opponent and that's what it's all about...

Hokey Pokey, folks. Happens in Idaho politics often, there's basically one party rule so in order to avoid a primary that demands a runn-off, Clem bargains on paid deflection for the win. Since he suddenly got a challenger, this is how he plays it. Whomever wins the primary ends up with the win in the general election.
