When did you notice?

When did you notice you weren't like the rest of us?  Maybe you could ask a Trump supporter.  Do people notice when they are ignorant?  Probably they do and Trump defends them, that is why they love him.  Deep down they know they are fools, but who sticks up for fools,  the Donald. So much industry is devoted to bilking fools.  You have the stump preachers making millions, the goof on KFYR radio selling magic pillows,  all the vitamin scams,  but no one does it like politicians.  Stupid people like simple explanations.  If you want to bilk a simple minded person keep it simple.  One pill is all it takes, or this will solve all your problems, or it is not your fault, the poor people are eating your lunch.  Churches were the first business to realize how easy it is to sell fantasy.  Scare people about hell then tell them for a small donation they can avoid hell.   Trump tells all the dolts they will be rich after trickle down works, and of course once they are rich they don't want to pay taxes.  Yes, and the Mexicans are coming for your jobs and money.  Why make it complicated? You have to admire people who put together elaborate cons, but simple cons work just fine.  You can always get a dolt to vote with the magic of guns, abortion, welfare, and tax breaks.  Why make it complicated?
