    Before 2016 I didn’t know much about him aside from he’s a rich dude with a golden tower who used to host a show. I can see someone not really paying attention i. 2016 and voting for him just because.

      Ah, yes. That salt-of-the-Earth everydayman that i can relate to. Not one of them filthy “coastal elites” that are destroying this fine country!
