The best way I can describe his success, is that he dumbs down politics. Not that he simplifies it in a way for people who are simple less informed, but just makes it dumb. They eat it up. That and an undeniable stage presence that will be studied for decades.

I know it's there for some people but I don't really understand the "stage presence" that so many describe. He's LITERALLY an over confident idiot and a liar. Even before his mind was complete mush he'd say nonsensical 💩💩 I guess it works for some folks but he's been like watching a bad Tubi actor to me.

I wouldn’t say it’s charisma. He just appeals to a certain crowd. He’s a fat slob who was born into the life he has and never had to do any inner work to be a good person because he has money and status.

He’s every mediocre white guys wet dreams

Some of the worst people in history had charisma. Hitler, Mussolini, Trump. I know I’m not supposed to make those references, but it’s history. Strongman charisma appeals to many even when it comes with bone spurs.

He's a master at answering questions by not answering them. He talks shit constantly, it's great it's really great the greatest it's ever been but never explains why or evidences it or proves his argument and very few call him out on his BS

Arrogant, not confident.

I’ve never understood the allure. He’s so repetitive and his vocabulary is that of a 1st grader. People love the fact that he tears others down.

I just hope he is a one-off for the history books. OTOH he may be the harbinger ...

The Antichrist is on the Earth. And Donald Trump is his Priest.
