Pff policy aside, the guy is a man-child and somehow that appeals to people

    It's the fear and blame, they now know white people can go back to having all the privilege, and brown people can be rounded up and infinity detained or exiled, imprisoned, enslaved, over policed, under served. Because they know any black having a job, means they got the job by being black and they stole it from a actually qualified white.

    That alone can't be it, I'm a man-child and I'd never vote for him if I had a say in this election.

    It's the fact that he promises easy solutions to everything. What are the solutions? Well that doesn't matter, he promised he'll deal with all the problems, that's enough.

    It means they aren't serious people. The Trump administration wrecked up the country with their shitty dangerous response to covid and their conservative base spent the entire time complaining and attacking healthcare workers.

    Serious people propose ways to address problems and work based off of facts. Conservatives are off on witch hunts and high on identity politics.

    This election was a referendum on the neo-liberal order and it lost. Trump represents populist nationalism, if the transactional nature of his first term is any indicator he's gonna sell off as much as he can to the highest bidders.

    TLDR: A bunch of angry working class folks just handed the country to the billionaire oligarchs, possibly under some delusion the wealthy won't keep robbing them blind.
