From Raw Story, more evidence that rich men are not necessarily very bright, here’s billionaire Trump supporter Ernie Boch:
“What I think is almost comical at this point is it seems like everybody is telling you not to vote for this gentleman,” he said. “I’ve never seen it before in any election, local, national — it’s the fortitude that Mr. Trump has to keep going and try to change this country. It’s amazing. I’ve been a fan of Mr. Trump since the 80s.”
Boch was then asked what specific policies he thought Trump would fight for that would benefit the country.
“I think he’s the right guy for the job… government waste, I think, is a big issue. I think he can save the U.S. a lot of money with government waste,” Boch replied.
“I think it’s time for a guy like this in the White House. It’s only four years. Let’s give him a shot.”
Boch later added that Trump supporters were endorsing “the man” — not his policies. “They want him in there.”
I think he’s right about that. For the most part they just like him and they hate the people he hates. It’s not complicated.
Watch the whole thing. It will wake you up.
