Trump has managed to find a base so stupid that he can say and do anything and they’ll keep right on supporting him.
If you think 1 person has cornered the market on stupid, talk to Bernie Sanders, ask him how he feels about being cheated by his own people.
😉 (a wink in jest)
Joking or not, it’s not a valid comparison. Sanders “base” were not thrilled when he was doing things like endorsing Hillary. Trump’s base would just keep cheering him no matter what.
Trump is President due to the stupidity of Clinton and the DNC, not because Americans that voted for Trump are mindless idiots, and your suggestion they are is disappointing.
