      Indeed. Imagine the enormous stupidity it takes to think votes can be won by ignoring voters. Only a massive moron would think such a tactic would work. Good thing no one is that idiotic.

        “I feel you are both outsiders compared to the rest of DC, and less ‘establishment’,” said one. Another, “both of you push boundaries and force growth”. And: “It’s real simple … Trump and you care for the working class.”

        “You are focused on the real issues people care about. Similar to Trump populism in some ways,” said a fourth. Lastly, a respondent said: “You signaled change. Trump signified change. I’ve said lately, Trump sounds more like you.”

        Utterly brilliant. Complete geniuses with a firm grasp on current politics. I see why you count these as intellectual kin.

      It’s people who vote based on vibes rather than facts and consequences. They saw both of them as “outsiders” who “tell it like it is” and want change.
