He knows damn well that this is a stupid stance on the subject, but he also knows damn well that his voting base is made up of some of the dumbest people in America and they’ll believe whatever he says.
His entire platform is based on this exact thing, which is lying to idiots.
I don’t know about this smart man manipulates idiots theory. Sometimes I think ding dongs can vote ding dongs is sufficient to explain most of the time.
In all seriousness though, it’s the three S model of conservatism. Scared, Stupid, and Selfish. You don’t have to be all three to be conservative, but you’re fucking one of them.
He knows how to manipulate. Idiots aren’t capable of doing something like that on such a large scale. He’s clearly smarter than his base to be able to keep them believing his dumb shit makes any sense.
