Greenesmith is the only person who comes close.

Trump is a neo fascist populist.

His whole strategy revolves around whipping people into a cultish fervor.

What is the base Republican voter?

A fucking moron, religious fundamentalist.

Why appeal to them?

Because they are very influential, very loyal, very, very easily swayed by the creation of an uberenemy, and they have their own apparatus for repeating the message (fundamentalist TV/Radio/WebCast preachers).

The LA Times is acting like Trump should have some kind of 'rational' strategy.

This is a stupid assumption.

He's not Mitt Romney, He's not John McCain.

He's a fascist, fascist rhetoric is all demonization, little to no actual logic behind the rhetoric.

But, liberals gonna be liberals I guess.
