But it is a typical Trump deal, selling vibes of "doing it the rough old way, with guns and hookers and lead paint and gasoline that makes your windows rainbow-colored".
That's what he sells. His fans know it's not achievable, they want a mess sufficient for something better to evolve, and vibes for them signify that mess. It's a bit like Shadow ideology in Babylon V.
