Trump’s base continues to love him anyway, mostly because, on his Twitter feed and at his ongoing campaign rallies, he has fed them a steady diet of entertaining, rhetorical red meat. They love his feistiness, how he never apologizes, how he stands up for their values, and how he sticks it to his enemies every day.
Really? Like the value of hard work? honesty? Decency? His supporters may follow him mindlessly, but the book would be more honest if there were some indication that this is what they feel and not something with any basis in reality. The primary values he expressed for his followers were a hatred of the other and a feeling of victimization. In those cases, mission accomplished.
