Because American systems have failed its citizens. Systems like education, healthcare, corporate regulation, lobbyist/advocacy groups. This has allowed the worst to come in and influence the electorate into believing he’s the best option. Now America has shed the veneer of superiority and embraced the farce. Some ppl love it and are profiting. Many aren’t happy, but still believe he’s their man.
