Being simple minded is an art. One key is ignoring the obvious, and loving simple solutions to complex problems. Those struggling fail to understand basic economics, or society. Lets make it simple for them. Society consist of aristocrats, and peasants. The peasants do the work and the aristocrats steal the excess the peasants produce. Very simple. Peasants need shacks to live in. Aristocats rent the peasants shacks.
If you have capital you don't have to work, you rent the capital and use it to exploit the peasants. Peasants have no sense of value, the aristocrats know that and sell the peasants useless stuff like jewelry and tattoos. Peasants have no idea of accumulating capital to rent to other peasants, so if they get a spare dime they buy a goofy, noisy pickup truck and put a Trump sticker in the window. Peasants have no concept of how percentages or interest rates work. Worst of all peasants have no idea of how probability works. Uneducated peasants are the fruit the aristocrats harvest. Trump is the master of fooling peasants. Peasants love simple explanations. Peasants don't operate on logic, but go by feelings. If it feels good keep doing it.
As peasants age they gradually realize they are busted flat. Trump explains to them it is not their fault. Peasants love that idea. Someone cheated the peasants and Trump tells them it is the migrants, the Democrats, and smart people. Trump tells the peasants he loves dumb people, and the peasants love him back. Meanwhile Trump robs the peasants bling and gives the money to his rich buddies.
Does it get any better, hell yes. God invented religious peasants. The Catholic Church raped them from the beginning. Nonsense sell to the religius peasants like peanut butter. Any story works for this bunch. God wanted a con man for president, that is fine with the religious peasants. The TV preachers knew before anyone how to rape a religious person. Trump saw the gold mine of stupidity and dug in.
