If you think Trump is knowledgeable of the Constitution in the same way as a seasoned politician or historian, you’re missing the point. Trump is a reactionary. He’s going to be this nation’s “protest vote” against Obama. We’ve ceased being a rational constitutional republic and have degraded into a populist democracy. It’s all a big popularity contest, and Trump is winning despite his substance.

That is right. Well said.
It’s all so superficial now.
