So Trump's allure to the RW idjuts...

[63splitwindow]

is that he will not be a puppet of the billionaire string-pullers because HE IS a billionaire string puller?
Makes sense.

2. Republican sense....

you know, like making decisions based on what makes the most money for someone who is already disgustingly rich.

3. He's come right out and said (IOW) that

he donates to politicians and expects something in return.

4. I think somebody did an OP with this link:

If I asked you what most defines Donald Trump supporters, what would you say? They’re white? They’re poor? They’re uneducated?

You’d be wrong.


In fact, I’ve found a single statistically significant variable predicts whether a voter supports Trump—and it’s not race, income or education levels: It’s authoritarianism.

That’s right, Trump’s electoral strength—and his staying power—have been buoyed, above all, by Americans with authoritarian inclinations. And because of the prevalence of authoritarians in the American electorate, among Democrats as well as Republicans, it’s very possible that Trump’s fan base will continue to grow.

My finding is the result of a national poll I conducted in the last five days of December under the auspices of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, sampling 1,800 registered voters across the country and the political spectrum. Running a standard statistical analysis, I found that education, income, gender, age, ideology and religiosity had no significant bearing on a Republican voter’s preferred candidate. Only two of the variables I looked at were statistically significant: authoritarianism, followed by fear of terrorism, though the former was far more significant than the latter.

5. There is a certain scary logic to the position.

In any event, never forget that the votes of "RW idjuts" can just as much as your or mine.

6. So next time you hear/see someone say...

"he's self-funding so he isn't beholdin' to anyone" make sure you point out that HE is exactly the type we don't want politicians beholdin' to--- he's just cutting the middleman out of the transaction. EVERYTHING he does is done to increase the $$$ value of the "Trump brand" after it's all said and done.
