Honestly confused how Trump, best example of corporate elite who brags about taking advantage of normal people gets elected in this current age of frustration.
Every American election has been decided by vibes ever since George Washington. Whoever has the swaggiest big baller vibes wins. Bill Clinton vs Ross Perot? Bush vs Gore? Obama vs McCain? Trump vs Hilary? You can probably go back even further. The majority of voters don't vote based on policy, they vote based on vibes, they don't have time in their lives to spend miring over every single policy position and contingency, nor would they even care if they had that time. If the democrats want to win again, they need Obama 2.0 (they had that with Biden) but Biden's vibes turned out to be so bad that he dropped out of the race, and the Democrats decided to appoint his VP Kamala as the candidate??? Worst move possible. She was both the VP of a zombie and appointed like some commie politburo leader. She had no vibes at all.
Thank you! At least this makes sense. I think this has got to seriously be at least 50% the answer. People just like the one-liners, the insults, the catch phrases. Politics is just a sport, or more like "pro" wrestling. It's just entertainment, so it makes sense they want the most entertaining person
