@SNerd I think this misses that it's more Trump being dragged along by his supporters than the other way around.
He himself is an empty suit that the MAGA crowd projects ideas onto. He vomits out often-meaningless rhetoric that they interpret as they see fit.
The reason this matters is because it emphasizes that we need to talk to each other, and through interaction encourage each other to be better. We can't blame figureheads like Trump for issues that really come from the grassroots.
