History is definitely a useful study, and I sure wish more people engaged in it, lest they opt to "gamble" their vote chasing a siren song of rhetoric designed to put them off from rational thinking.
For what it's worth, I think every vote for Trump was a stupid one. Who in their right mind believes a "populist" billionaire? Who in their right mind chalks race-baiting and appeals to xenophobia up to politicking? Those were your warning signs, and you ignored them.
I think a nationalist billionaire is believable. And it's a tough question on who's more likely to be a populist. Obviously Bernie was the guy. But the Obama's and Clinton's weren't obscenely wealthy coming into the presidency. They made/will make their cash after the fact. Their future wealth is tied almost entirely to post presidential 'donations'.
Is it a wink and a nod from Goldman Sachs that they'll hook you up with the 250k speaking deals when you're done being President? Is that different than giving you the 250k before you're President, if it's implied?
I wrote "populist" billionaire, not "nationalist" billionaire. I'll give you time to put 'er in reverse and quit trying to be a bullshit artist.
Clock starts now. Get to work.
The rest of your flailing does not merit my attention, given that it's simply an attempt to distract readers. I ain't biting. Address what is being said and quit the dogshit, seriously.
