Your daughter is right. He panders to the Sun City crowd. Most of them will NEVER end up in Tent City, so they don't care what goes on there....like the freepers who have commented here, yet live far away.
The Sun City crowd is what keeps him in power, along with the media. However, his popularity has been waning over the last few years as more and more people "catch on" to him, so fortunately his days in power are numbered.
When Ole Joke senses the wind has finally changed is when he will suddenly decide he's served "the people" long enough and go quietly into the sunset.
When he's really gone, then we'll hear the truth about him.
I'm counting the days....
I take it you mean the "retirees" that live there? So how does he "pander" to them?
