Stop assuming they're stupid. They're not stupid. They're monsters, they know exactly what they're doing and they're doing it because they want people to suffer.

Trump can be both stupid and a monster, we just have to focus on the monster part more than the stupid.

Trump is very talented with one thing and one thing only: Making Everything About Him. (MEAH?)

It's the others in the party, whether it's legislators like McConnell, Green Margarine, Bobert, Cruz, or lobbyists for the capitalists like the Federalist Society, Koch brothers, O&G, health insurance that make sure things stay "good for business" (and shitty for your average person).
