He is running to help himself. He is running to stay out of jail.
He is who he has always been. Nothing has changed.
He is still greedy. He is still a liar. He is still a grifter. He is still a racist. He is still a thief. He is still a criminal.
This is not just an opinion.
Look at the facts.

(9,706 posts)They will vote for him to poke us in the eyes.
They don't vote based on their own principles or set of values.
They don't vote for their own best self-interests.
They vote for him because they have deified him and perceive him to be a martyr. He is truly their Christ-figure.
In this scenario, Jack Smith is Pontius Pilate.
And this time, Pontius has got it right.

He was very effective at manipulating them with simple slogans and ridicule. He was like crack. He made them feel good.

They are the star of the show, the rest of the world are just props.
