Sounds a lot like another conservative figurehead I could name...
Actually, it sounds a lot like almost all conservative figureheads in US politics.
They're completely idiotic and yet way more successful than I'll ever be. But then again I have a guilty conscience.
They're "successful" if you define success as being born into wealth and/or being willing to ignore the suffering of others. For you and me (and most right thinking people), that's no real measure of success. Unfortunately, capitalism and the US political systems gives power to the people least suited to wielding it.
And that's why their base votes for them. Because they can relate.
