“Fervent” is the key word here. I see a lot of psychological similarities between Trump’s 2016 campaign and 0bama’s 2008 campaign. There is a synergistic self-reinforcing psychological energy loop going on; it’s a “event” and people want to be a part of it. Both campaigns are building on a sense that things are “going wrong” and a charismatic, popular leader has emerged to appears to understand the problems of the common man.

And Hillary is every bit the old worn-out politician that McCain was. The irony is that the Trump campaign is being used against the people who fomented 0bama’s 2008 campaign, who are suffering with supporting a dead candidate, just like the dead candidate they opposed in 2008.

I love irony, particularly when it’s applied to people I don’t like.
