I disagree on the stupid part. If one's goal is to have a class too stupid to oppose you and are dumb enough to vote against their own best interest all the time it's quite smart. There is a razor that says something like don't sign malice where stupidity can apply, but in this case we clearly have evidence it's intended and not lunacy.
