re: #223 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

could be, but I see Hawley as really positioning himself to assume the Trump mantle. Even though he is a college-eddicated elitist politician he still manages to sell himself as a Man of the MAGAts

Trump is a college educated “pretend” billionaire who lives a lavish lifestyle; he had no problems creating the MAGAts — because he promoted the racism and nationalism that appeal to that segment of the population. Hawley would have no difficulty in doing the same; he is as much a racist as Trump. However, he doesn’t have the “wealth” that also attracts these supporters; they believe Trump is a brilliant successful businessman, and Hawley certainly doesn’t share that characteristic with Trump.
