William Lindsey :toad:<p>"Trump gained popularity by appealing to the angry, the resentful and the paranoid. He spoke to them in the language of conspiracy and coverup. His followers are suspicious of nearly all of those in power, except, of course, Trump himself.

William Lindsey :toad:<p>"The key for Democrats in 2026 will be portraying Donald Trump, his policies, and his ideological project as a protection racket for the elites.
