i disagree that trump endures because he's a celebrity.

he endures because he appeals to white working class voters who feel that the system is rigged against them.

this is a legitimate constituency with a legitimate problem.

unfortunately it's also compounded with scapegoating, racism, xenophobia, and all manner of absurdities just like nazism used the jews to blame for germany's problems. only now it's mexican rapists/drug dealers and muslim terrorists. and like mobutu he wants to jail his political opponents.

if i felt that trump offered actual workable solutions for the working class instead of lies and snake oil i would actually support him. but he's a scammer and a thief and an abusive psychopath lying demagogue. fucking wannabe banana republic tyrant. so no fucking way. NO FUCKING WAY.
