I give exactly zero fucks about how "persuasive" someone is to a random/average person. The average voted and still votes Trump. If you want to look like an idiot in front of me... go right ahead.

interresting point. May be people voted for trump, just because of his hand gesture.. Make more sense than because of his policies. So you support the thesis of the article?

I have no doubt that most people are easy to manipulate, worlds history is full of examples. The same way quackery, homeopathy, etc. etc. flourish.
