      And so many of these “common men” still seem to really believe that no matter what he actually says or does, all that matters is that he talks like the person they imagine him to be, which they believe means he unequivocally understands and cares about them and can do no wrong. He really does love the poorly educated, and you can see why.

      The reality distortion field Trump supporters seem to be trapped in is rapidly approaching the strength of a black hole. I’m not sure what happens when it all collapses and they all fall into the event horizon but I’ll certainly be glad if they can’t escape and we never have to hear from most of them ever again.

        That’s the thing, it’s not even that he talks how they want, they literally just imagine that he does, and that’s good enough. It’s so fucking bizarre.
