see that's what gets me...like I can understand how that worked the first time, the "populist who all the elites hate" thing is a powerful political trope, but after he already became president once and got an entire political party to shift their entire M.O. to operate solely as an extension of his ego you'd think that appeal would've faded. like the fact that basically the entire Republican party endorses him EXCEPT for nearly everyone who was in his cabinet the first time should be a humongous red flag that it's not "dangerous ideas" it's the fact that he really fucking sucks
