[quote=harvey]Trump’s support is of course mainly due to negative perceptions of Hillary created by three decades of relentless propaganda against her.
But there’s more to it. We all see it and it seems impossible to understand.
It’s quite simple, really. Much of Trump’s support is about hope. A hope that he really is different, a hope that he really does have some unique business skills that can make a difference, a hope that he won’t play be the rules that constrain the insiders…
Many of his negatives actually feed this hope. He doesn’t pay taxes? We’ll maybe he’ll find a way for my takes to go away also…
It’s a desperate hope. One not grounded in any reason. One that any wise person knows would be nothing but a disappointment. But there’s just enough about him to cling to.[/quote]
That reminds me of a slogan not too long ago… What was it??? Oh yeah, Hope and Change. LoL. This time, it just got turn up a couple of notches.
