Well that's one way to make sure that most if not all of the smart people in that audience don't vote for him.

Oh, but he's changed his mind (in his rhetoric. His 'budget' still calls for pell grants to be slashed and rates to be doubled. But this weeks he claims he's for their being held low... in direct contrast to what he says in this video.)

... Yeah.

How could anyone even consider voting for someone like that?

It's one thing to honestly change your mind. I wouldn't vote for someone who holds the same opinion on something, even if there's evidence against it. But at least then you owe it to your voters to explain why you changed your mind and to not change it again, the moment it suits you better afterwards.

It's just not a good way to run anything, in politics, business or real life.

What do you expect. He's the same guy who said you shouldn't run for office if you aren't rich.

... so I guess if you don't make enough to own a car elevator (yes, he does) you should stay out of politics.

Government = for the rich by the rich in Rmoneyland.
