Would be too obvious. Noone believes what that account tweets anyway.

What can you tweet to trump supporters for maximum monetization? Crypto scam? Doubt many of them own crypto or know what it is. Get them to send western union/itunes gift cards? Too obvious, will probably get clawed back.

Voting preference is voting preference. It doesn’t dictate a person’s entire set of beliefs. Personal observations lead me to conclude that plenty of Trump supporters know he’s crazy but still prefer that to the alternative.
