Of course Trump knows this. Like anti-democratic populists around the world--Bolsonaro, the UKIP types, Duterte, any number of eastern European leaders, and many others before them, he has extraordinary gutter instincts. Like most democratic systems around the world, the US system has always had a susceptibility to political leaders who don't give a fuck about norms so here we are.It's just astonishing. You just have to let them go and get on with it all really don't you. it's very sad and we probably have a similar fair share over here too..........Thing is I think Trump knows how stupid some of the people who vote for him are and he deliberately plays on it - hence the whole fraud mail votes thing........
Trump is right, let's build a wall.......... around America, so that the loonies have to stay there. Due to apologies to our US posters on here that have the sense and intellect to assess the policies and form their own decisions based on their own research. I can't make that sound uncondescending or patronising, although it's not supposed to be.
