The ones voting for him are listening. That's exactly what they think they want want. The average republican voter is simply too stupid to understand the long term implications of their choices. This is the same stupid push that led to Brexit.

They're being controlled by the smart republicans that are using it to enrich themselves at others expense.

While democrats do this kind of manipulation too, at least they aren't pushing straight up authoritarianism.
