I've wondered the same thing myself.  Republicans support for Trump is around 90%, and I just can't understand it.  He's a pathological liar and obviously doesn't know what he is doing.  I guess many Republicans enjoy the political theater, or hate Democrats so much they love to see us in pain.

I would compare Trump to McCarthy or Mussolini.  He's definitely a demagogue who specializes in whipping people up.
