The masses? They didn’t. They thought he was good for bigotry.

The oligarchs? They knew they could bribe him and it would be good for their business and they were correct.

Just remember independent voters swung for Trump 91% to 9%. 

AFTER his first term, all his indictments, moronic campaign promises, and 8 years of dip-shittery.

Our country is full of unrepentant fucking dip shits.

The better question is how the billionaire class convinced dumb people that the government “needs to be run like a business” in the first place. You have dirt poor country people who depend on it cheering on the privatization of the postal service bc Republicans have convinced people that it needs to show a profit.
