the way how he can both blatantly pander and say whatever his audience wants him to say AND not give a fuck and say whatever he feels like

it's weird, it's refreshing. nobody else in politics does it, and it just completely breaks the dems. like, if they were like, "oh, we kinda agree with him on this or that point" it might actually get his supporters to stop and see he's saying things they'd hate. But decorum dictates they take every stance you expect a republican to, with like a 20% politer tone. So all the MAGA heads see is Democrats getting angry, which is all they really want.
