What's Trumps Appeal
Can you think of anything?
shareas a non American, this seems to be the only presidential run up where one of the candidates is focussing not on what he can do, but on what he didn't do in the past (that's a way of saying not on the upcoming election, but on the previous election)
you don't want to know what most of the rest of the world thinks of Trump
Yeah, ask the rest of the world that was not attacked by the US military during Trump's presidency. I am sure they missed something...
shareAbsolutely nothing..
shareright or wrong. lies or not. all calculated politics or geniune beliefs. this is what i see as his appeal to republicans.
-speaks his mind. doesnt feel scripted and hence feels more genuine.
-seems more "average Joe" than more polished politicians
-anti establishment rhetoric
-outsider rhetoric
-brought up average, every day person issues like NAFTA
-related to above talks about issues they feel other more mainstream politicians wont.
There is nothing average Joe about him though. He was a pampered rich kid his whole life.
sharedid you not see my disclaimer in the first line? I agree 100000% with you. i just like to put myself in the shoes of those who like him. If i cant see their view on things im just living in a bubble.
but undoubtably he does seem more a"average joe" than say Kamala Harris. i looked up her history hoping maybe she came from poverty and hence it would be funny that a silver spoon fed billionaire seems more down to earth average than somone who came from poverty. but her parents were both pretty well educated academics. But by no means nearly as wealthy as the Trumps.
Well educated academics and wealthy Trumps are MILES apart. One is a completely different kind of wealth.
shareHilariously doesn't give a shit.
shareOther big, fat, sore losers can really relate to him.
shareAwesome President.
